Summary

If what you're looking for is someone reliable, willing to learn, and passionate about providing excellent customer service with a smile, then I'm your guy.

I've got a bubbly, easy-going and welcoming energy that allows me to get along with everyone.

  • I greeted each guest as they entered the restaurant with a smile and a cheerful attitude.
  • As a waiter, I was responsible for a section each shift, and had to juggle taking customers orders and putting them through the POS system, dropping food and drinks at their respective tables, as well as handling any customer complaints or concerns that arose.
  • Maintaining order in my section; closing tables' bills and processing payments; memorising the menu; keeping communication with the kitchen and fellow FOH team members - these are just some of the things I did in order to excel in my role.
