Server interview: the five situations
The rush, the wrong order, the upsell and the exact sentences that work, ready for tomorrow's interview.
The rush, the wrong order, the upsell and the exact sentences that work, ready for tomorrow's interview.
Restaurant interviews don't test your resume. They test five situations.
The rush, the wrong order, the angry table, the upsell and availability. One lived example each is the whole prep.
«A table says the order is wrong»
Apologize once, fix it fast, tell the kitchen calmly. «I'll get that fixed — two minutes.» No excuses, no blame.
Friday rush, two tables wave at once. What do you say?
Acknowledgment buys time and calm. Triage is the skill they're hiring: eyes up, one promise, then order of urgency.
Specific beats generic: «Sparkling or still?» sells more water than «anything to drink?». Suggest one thing, once.
«Do you have serving experience?»
Talk about pace and pressure you HAVE lived — any job with a rush counts. Then say how fast you learn menus.
They're not hiring your past. They're hiring your Friday night.
