What Types Of Careers In Cafes

By Byron Jonas


First of all, the restaurant field is huge and there are many different types of careers available. If fact, just about anything you would like to do can be made into careers in cafes. After all, just like any other business, they need a variety of skills to make the business work.

First of all is the well known waitress position. This position will deal with the public on a regular basis. In fact, there are very few times this person will not be in the public eye. So as you can imagine, enjoying the public is probably one of the biggest requirements for this field. Not only that, but you also must be able to handle stress on a regular basis and keep it together during the really busy periods.

The next position that needs to be filled is the cook. They will need to be able to move quickly, cook great food, and know how to handle the food accordingly to state laws. They need to know where things are, and be able to put the food dishes together in an appetizing manner as well as be able to communicate well with the waitress.

These two positions must be filled in order to even start the establishment. After that, there are more simple job areas that will need to be filled. There is manager of course, who needs to be able to keep the place running during a down time, as well as keep the good employees when it isn't so busy.

Other types of careers in cafes are also available, restaurant accountants or bookkeepers are needed, marketing positions need to be filled, as well as legal personnel. In all of these types of positions, they will specialize in the position and work for a chain of restaurants, or perhaps several local restaurants will all use the same professional.

As you can see, there are many different types of positions that are needed to make a restaurant run properly. All of the people usually will be comfortable in the kitchen and out of it, as well as love the business.

If you're interested in cafe positions, getting a bit of experience is a big help. While you may not start out in one of the major positions there are plenty of bus people as well as kitchen help that moved up in the restaurant after a short period of time. So take any dish washing, kitchen aid, or even cleanup job you can. Most of the time, cafes and restaurants will hire from within if at all possible.
