It should be but unfortunately many places sometimes just hire a "warm body". This is why the food service industry is suffering. There is no substitutions for experience.
So You Want To Be a Banquet Manager

Perhaps if you want to be a head cook but they hire line cooks without experience. If you want to wait tables and you never did it before, it might be in your best interest to fabricate some sort of fictitious background.
Employers will eat whatever you feed them.
Just make up some dinky unprovable restaurant where you had some experience such as bussing tables.
Something is better than nothing.
That's if you want to wait tables and are afraid
that you'll get called out for not having experience but seriously most restaurant jobs, even the hostess many times have little or no experience before they get hired.
Most importantly have a winning attitude and a desire to do your job well and this will help you win your interview in a big way.

You're reading I want to get a job at a restaurant for some extra money, probably at one of the chains as hostess part time. My only problem is none of my jobs up to this point have been in the F&B industry. Is experience necessary to get hired at a restaurant job?
