Shinto is hiring
By Patricia Nugent
With people heading back to work, now’s the time to lock down the best job for your future. We spoke with Brittany Swan, multi-unit general manager at Shinto Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar, for a Top 5 List of why Shinto would be the perfect place to start your journey.
- “The atmosphere is fun and entertaining, nearly 70% of our reservations are made to celebrate special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries and graduations.”
- “The Way of the Gods. What does this mean? We want our guests to soak in the stylish Asian-inspired décor, indoors and out. Complete with water fountains, lighting and upbeat music. Our patios are packed this summer.”
- “Shinto is known for nurturing leadership and promoting from within. For instance, I started as a server in college, rose through the ranks to bartender, catering manager, general manager and now multi-unit general manager. I was mentored personally by the founder of Shinto, Sheng Long Yu.”
- You want a place to belong. “Unlike corporate-style restaurants, Shinto treats its staff members like family. We invest our time and knowledge in our chefs, frontline staff and managers.”
- You love food. “Food is love, right? Shinto has won numerous industry awards, such as Best of Cleveland. We reward our staff for their hard work, as well as their families, by providing generous discounts on the food.”
“The Shinto Culture is a fusion of elements, from the energy to the servers and chefs who come together,” says Brittany. “In turn, this provides a unique experience for our staff members as well as every guest who walks through our doors.”
