Hospitality & Food Service
Examples for chefs, waiting staff and restaurant managers, covering food safety certification and service metrics.
Chef CV Example
A chef's CV needs to answer two questions immediately: which cuisine you know, and how many covers you push through a service. "Chef" alone isn't enough — Italian is a different kitchen from Levantine, and a hundred-cover restaurant is a different job from a four-hundred-cover one.
- Levantine cuisine
- HACCP
- food safety
- kitchen management
Waiter CV Example
Waiting is one of the best routes into work because it accepts people with no experience — but progressing in it depends on one thing: do you grow the table's bill, or just carry the order? A server who cites upselling and service ratings gets ahead of every other applicant.
- table service
- upselling
- POS systems
- guest service
Restaurant Manager CV Example
Restaurant managers are hired on one outcome: profitability. A CV describing "overseeing daily operations" says nothing. What's needed is revenue figures, food and labour cost percentages, and staff turnover — those are the numbers an owner reads.
- restaurant management
- cost control
- food cost percentage
- team management
