The restaurant industry is one of opportunity, made up of myriad positions and career paths in restaurants and at the corporate offices of regional and national brands.

Right now, there are some 1.1 million foodservice and hospitality industry jobs available to prospective employees, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. In its ongoing effort to help operators and managers attract the best and brightest candidates for those positions, The National Restaurant Association recently updated its Restaurant Industry Job Descriptions landing page to showcase more than 60 restaurant-level and corporate-position job descriptions for companies to use when advertising their own job postings.

The job postings will want to reflect the culture and attributes of each different organization. The short, simple descriptions also provide industry job seekers with a good list of qualifications they might want to consider when attempting to advance their own careers.
