04

Interview questions worth rehearsing

With the thing the interviewer is actually listening for

A guest's entree comes out wrong on a busy night. Walk me through what you do.

Apologize once, get the fix moving immediately, keep the rest of the table eating comfortably, and loop in a manager if it merits a comp. Recovery, not blame.

How do you manage a full section when everything hits at once?

Talk about consolidating trips, prioritizing by course timing, and telling tables honestly when something will take a moment. Grace under load is the test.

How do you handle questions about allergens?

Say you never guess: you know the menu's common allergens and confirm with the kitchen for anything uncertain. This is a safety answer, not a service one.

What is your approach to suggesting appetizers, wine, or dessert?

Describe recommending things you genuinely like, reading the table's pace, and never pushing. Natural suggestion outsells scripted upselling.

Tell me about your most difficult guest and how it ended.

Keep the story short and calm: you listened, fixed what you could, and stayed professional. The retelling itself demonstrates the skill.

What POS systems have you used, and how fast are you on them?

Name them, and mention modifiers, split checks, and comps. Fluency here directly affects table turns.

05

Resume tips that move the needle

For servers specifically — generic advice costs you here

01

Quantify your service: section size, covers per shift, or sales per hour if you know them.

02

Name the restaurant styles you have worked: fine dining, fast casual, or high-volume chains.

03

List POS systems, such as Toast, Aloha, or Micros, plus any wine or menu training.

04

Include your food handler card and alcohol service certification where your state requires them.

05

Mention awards or metrics like top sales rankings, guest mentions, or trainer status.
