I am not sure how much to say. If your not familiar with Zaxbys it is a "fast-casual" restaurant. Also if it helps I live in TN and I am applying for a position at a restaurant that is just being built and isn't even opened yet. How much should I ask for? Should I give a range? And if so, how broad of a price range should I give?

  2. Talk to people that work at comparative restaurants, and think about what you've made at previous jobs (if that applies), and be realistic based on your skills, abilities and needs.

    The fact that the particular location isn't open doesn't matter. They're franchised, so the requirements won't be based on tenure there. Just give a range that captures the accurate range of the industry, and what you think you deserve.

    And one last thing- when you take it to them, put it in a cover letter. That will allow you to tell them about your skills and qualifications, and why they should hire you in the first place.

    Best of luck!

  3. Depends on what position you are applying for. Usually something like that it's best to leave open for discussion. I used to work in the rest. industry and I've found out if I put what I really should be getting paid they turned me down...esp. for a brand new place. They try to hire cheap help to weed out the people that aren't gonna last. Since you are applying for an assistant g.m. position I'm sure you know the rest. industry and have worked it before so I would say atleast $32,000/yr. esp. if you have an impressive resume.  I used to work for AppleBee's and with bonuses and things of the sort the G.M.'s were pulling like $50-60,000. Asst. G.M.'s were about $30-45,000 depending on how well they were established. Good Luck to you...Hope I was of some help.

  4. They generally recommend saying that 'salary is negotiable' on the application and/or during the interview as to not overbid or underbid.  

    General career info:  http://www.bls.gov/oco and can search 'food service managers' (albeit the position is for 'assistant manager' ;) or such.

  5. If they ask you for a salary history be sure to provide one. Now when you go into a interview you never tell them how much you are asking for , you want to do your homework and determine what you are worth based on your experience and education and make sure that whatever dollar amt u come up with is in alignment with comparable positions in your area. I suggest you do some research at salary.com. You can get position, industry and area specific on salary.com and com up with a good range. If you need to earn extra income also be sure to check out this opportunity , you always need more than one revenue stream. http://www.projectpayday.com/go/1407394/...
