Application advice
5 AI-generated recommendations to maximise your chances.
⭐ Lead with your Assistant Manager or Supervisor experience in hospitality: place this prominently in your CV with specific examples of shifts led, team sizes managed, and any progression towards General Manager level.
📊 Quantify your KPI achievements: instead of "drove sales", write "Achieved 115% of quarterly sales targets" or "Increased average transaction value by 12% through upselling initiatives".
🎯 Highlight compliance and safety expertise: explicitly mention health and safety certifications, licensing knowledge, or audits you've managed—this is non-negotiable for restaurant operations.
🤝 Showcase team development impact: detail how many team members you've mentored, promoted, or trained, and any improvements in staff retention or performance metrics.
💼 Emphasise guest experience and feedback management: include examples of how you've resolved complaints, improved ratings, or championed customer satisfaction—Prezzo values this highly in their "Hospitality Magic" culture.
