It doesn't do any good to learn words in German if you're not saying them right. Remember that Germans have a lot of tension in their cheeks when they speak. To sound like a German, you need to hold your mouth right. When you open your mouth, shape it as if you are forming a large "o" or a lowercase "u." Try to find videos of people speaking German so you can understand how they keep their mouth when speaking. Germans also pronounce some consonants and vowels differently than English speakers would. Although German does share some things in common with English, some of the vowels are pronounced differently. This will be very important when you try to count in German. In German, the vowel combination of "ei" is pronounced like the "i" in "lie" or the "y" in "dry." For example, the word "drei" in German means three. However, it's pronounced "dry." Similarly, the word "frei" means free in German. It's pronounced "fry." It's the opposite for the vowel combination "ie." This combination is pronounced like the "ee" in the English word "free." So when you say the German word for four ("vier") remember to pronounce the "ie" in it as "ee." The vowel combination of "eu" is pronounced "oy" in German. If you see an umlaut over a vowel, you pronounce that vowel differently. The German word for "five" has an umlaut: funf. The u should sound like "oo" but with rounded lips. One of the key ways that speaking German differs from English is how you pronounce some consonants. Some will be pronounced similarly to English, but not all. The consonant "v" is pronounced as an "f" sound. So make an "f" sound, not a "v" sound, when you pronounce the German word for four. In German, the consonant "s" is pronounced as a "z" when it starts a word, such as "sieben" (the German word for seven). When the letter "r" ends a word, it's pronounced lightly, as in "uh." The letter "r" is also pronounced very lightly when it's in the middle of a word. Put your tongue on the roof of your mouth as you say it. So, the word in German for four "vier" is pronounced "feeah." When the consonant "z" starts a word, pronounce it as "ts."

Summary: Hold your mouth tightly when you speak. Learn how to pronounce German vowels. Understand how to pronounce German consonants.

In your resume, include examples of your leadership qualities and any responsibilities you had at your previous jobs. Focus on emphasizing accomplishments rather than merely listing duties. Make sure to have at least two good references to give out. It's best if these are people who have seen you work in the restaurant industry and can speak to your leadership and organizational skills.

If you do work for a larger corporate chain, inquire about opportunities in other cities or states and at new stores. Companies will be more likely to hire someone that shows initiative and has experience with their model of restaurant. For more options, be willing to relocate to accept a position. Look on job boards like Indeed or Craigslist for new positions and in the classified section of your newspaper. Widening your geographical search can open up more opportunities. If you cold call restaurants, make sure you don't go during busy service hours. Take a printed out copy of your resume. If you want to manage a new restaurant, networking is an invaluable tool at your disposal. In many cities, restaurant workers form tight-knit communities. Often, restaurant owners have more than one restaurant in a given area. Display an interest in who's involved in your local community. Ask who owns different restaurants, and remember names and faces. Attend culinary events in your city, and introduce yourself to people. Show a genuine interest in their work. Make it known that you are looking to manage a restaurant, but don't be pushy when contacting your connections.
Summary: Create a food and beverage resume. Work your way up. Look for job postings online and in newspapers and cold call restaurants. Network with restaurant managers and owners in your area.
