Junior Hospitality Employee
Without experience working in hospitality? No problem, you can start with us as a Junior Hospitality Employee!
A Chef Lunch Fish and a halloumi sandwich for that table on the raised section, a carpaccio for table 623, and then a tasting of Creuses for 408 at the Oyster Bar section. It all just fits on my tray! My name is Rudy, and I started at HNY without any hospitality experience at all . I can tell you, in the beginning it was quite exciting, walking all day from the pass with trays full of plates to the tables, or carrying a tray full of drinks … On my first working day, I completed training 1. The perfect training for a starting Hospitality Employee, where all the basics are explained, such as where each table is located and what the different sections are called. Still, I found it a bit nerve-wracking to bring my first tray to a table, but luckily my colleague quickly told me what was on each plate so I could explain it to the guests. Are you friendly towards guests and colleagues, and do you thrive in a large team? Then would you like to become my colleague?
Experience is not required, we will teach you everything, and with the right attitude and a big smile , you’ll go a long way! Welcome to HNY as a Junior Hospitality Employee.
