Employment
Opportunities
with Parties By Panache, Inc.
This
is occasional employment, requiring scheduling
flexibility.
The

of an excellent team.
Our
events occur on an occasional basis 7 days per week and
at all hours. We cater breakfasts, brunches, lunches, teas,
and dinners. We cater small events for as few as ten guests
to large events for as many as one thousand or more guests.
Parties
By Panache, Inc. has for the last 19 years catered to a
very exclusive clientele in Southern California. Since we
cater at our clients' homes and facilities, as well as at
public venues, we are obligated to ensure that all of our
servers are bondable. We also require them to be dependable
and presentable.

a clean DMV record. No candidate may have a felony conviction
of any sort, or a misdemeanor conviction involving violence,

The client may request Hawaiian shirts and khaki pants.
The server may be requested to wear a "Panache" tee shirt provided for the event.
Servers
are required to wear clean and ironed long black pants,
a white long sleeved, button-down collar shirt and a long
dress tie. The shirt must tuck into the pants.

or below their wrists or on their hands.

Our
Servers are Team Players
Our
clients have many special requirements and we do not expect
our servers to know them all. All events are staffed with
party leaders who do know the requirements and will instruct
the servers of the needs and requirements of the client.
Therefore, experience in the food service business and in
dining room service will not be enough in all cases to properly
perform the servers function. All servers must be team players
who can follow directions and assist their fellow servers
as needed.
Our
Servers are All Utility Staff
No member of our service team is a specialist. Bar
tenders bus tables, grilling station servers will pass hors
d' oeuvres. Bus persons will get guests a fork or glass
of water if requested. By being flexible we are more efficient
and no one person gets stuck doing everything.
Our
Servers Look for the Job, They Don't Wait for It
