Foreign Cinema

• 1 - 100 Employee

• Hostess

  • Dec 2017 - May 2018

  Foreign Cinema is a magical destination for local, national and international visitors. As a first and final point of contact I learned how to provide excellent customer service in a fast paced setting to ensure our guests had a wonderful experience. This was my first job in the restaurant industry and I loved everything about it. I learned that I was capable of working in that environment and really enjoyed it so I am pursuing related careers in the field. Had to step down from this role due to my hectic schedule but I believe it was truly a mutually beneficial experience. Show less
