Dear [Mr./Mx./Ms.] [Manager’s Name],
I’m writing to you regarding the food service position at [Company Name] that I saw on [Website Name]. With over six years of experience in the industry, my skills prove that I am a strong candidate for the role, and I am confident that I will make a valuable addition to your establishment.
While working at The Big Lobster for the past two years, I honed my customer service skills, as well as mastered keeping track of inventory and training underperforming staff, becoming a well-rounded food service worker in the process. I also served as an assistant food service worker, where I perfected menu presentation, mastered 3 types of POS Terminals, and helped maintained a hygienic kitchen. My contributions made both establishments higher performing, and helped give many customers a pleasant dining experience.
My accomplishments include:
- Manually calculating and splitting bills, completing 53 orders when the POS terminal was down
- Learning a special shorthand for taking down phone orders quickly and efficiently
- Compiling an encyclopedic knowledge of wines, entrees, restaurant equipment, and POS terminals
With my wealth of experience, I am the perfect fit for your restaurant. I have attached my resume to further demonstrate my previous experiences and valuable skills. I look forward to hearing from you, and would be happy to come in for an interview. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
