Many of us would have at least had some experience working part-time in the F&B industry just to occupy ourselves during the holidays. That being said, not all of us have a way of remembering and fulfilling all customers’ orders – which is why serving at banquets might be a better alternative for those who can relate.
Aside from serving food, being a Banquet Server will get you involved in setting the tables and utensils before guests arrive as well.
Here’s an added bonus: you can get your friends to work with you. And when they’ve clocked in a total of 30 hours in 2 weeks, you’ll receive a $20 referral bonus!

Though it’s known to be a physically-intense job, you’ll end your day feeling fulfilled as you’ll be imparting important life values to students. So, expect to run on energy and do a whole lotta self-reflection while you camp out with the students!
