Job Description

Bloomingdale's is a leading luxury department store known for blending fashion, style, and exceptional customer service to create a unique shopping experience. As part of the Macy's, Inc. family, Bloomingdale's operates numerous stores across the United States, offering a curated selection of apparel, accessories, beauty products, and home goods from top designers and brands. The company prides itself on cultivating a culture where colleagues are empowered to bring creativity and passion to their roles, making every visit inspiring and enjoyable for their customers. Diversity, inclusivity, and collaboration are foundational values at Bloomingdale's, fostering a vibrant and supportive work environment where every team member's voice matters.

The Server position at Bloomingdale's is a dynamic role essential to delivering the brand’s mission of being like no other store in the world. Servers are key players in enhancing the in-store customer experience by providing excellent dining service whether a customer is grabbing a quick treat like the store’s famous frozen yogurt or enjoying a full sit-down meal. This role requires a combination of friendly, approachable customer care, and knowledgeable communication about menu options, including detailed information regarding ingredients, portions, and potential allergens. Understanding the culinary flow, or "coursing," and its impact on upselling adds value to this position.

As a Bloomingdale's Server, you will thrive in a fast-paced, customer-focused environment that demands attentiveness and multitasking skills. The job involves interacting with a diverse clientele and contributing to a stylish and inviting culinary atmosphere that complements the iconic shopping experience.
