Restuarant Manager Letter

by Jeff Metairie

This is the cover letter I used to find a restaurant manager position after 7 years of operating my own restaurant. It helped me get a job with a major chain restaurant at the General Manager level.

In my time running various types of restuarants I have been responsible for all facets of restaurant operations; from food cost control, to hiring and even construction of a restaurant.

Please contact me to discuss the position further.
