Restaurant Manager Test

When hiring members of your restaurant’s leadership staff, this test will evaluate candidates’ managerial and supervisory skills.

Pre-Employment Test


Purpose: This pre-employment test for hiring restaurant managers will evaluate a candidate’s leadership skills, and their ability to coach and motivate others in a hands-on style while communicating well and organizing tasks for optimal efficiency. Your candidates for managerial-level restaurant positions should also be able to create a positive customer-oriented culture, where people work hard and enjoy their work.

About the Test: This test is untimed and should take approximately 30-40 minutes to complete. It consists of 2 parts:

  • A personality assessment
  • A test of general reasoning (equally divided among verbal, numerical, logic and abstract reasoning)

What the Report Gives You: A graphical display of scores of areas covered, explanation of aptitude results, list of strengths and developmental concerns, and suggested interview questions.

Target Group: In addition to Restaurant Manager and Assistant Manager job titles, we suggest using this test for the positions of  Kitchen Manager, Café Manager, Chef/Executive Chef, Bar Manager, Food & Beverage Manager, Back of House Manager, Front of House Manager, and Assistant General Manager.

Testing Process: Online personality testing provides immediate reporting. Proctoring is desirable but not required.
