Restaurant Summer Internship
Hillstone Restaurant Group

Are you a rising senior with a passion for hospitality and a strong interest in restaurant operations or culinary management? Hillstone Restaurant Group offers a dynamic Summer Internship Program designed to provide hands-on experience in the fast-paced world of upscale restaurant management.

About the Internship

Our internship is an immersive experience that exposes students to all aspects of restaurant operations, with a particular focus on daily service and management functions. Interns will primarily apprentice in staff-level roles, gaining first-hand experience in key service areas, while also having the opportunity to shadow management in areas such as:

• Hiring, training, and team development
• Inventory management and cost control
• P&L oversight and financial analysis
• Guest relations and hospitality excellence

Previous restaurant experience is helpful but not required—what matters most is your enthusiasm, work ethic, and commitment to learning.

Program Details

•  Intern placements are based on fit and assigned to one of our restaurants nationwide
•  Competitive compensation (average of $1,000 per week, varies by location)
•  Full-time summer opportunity

We are known for our exceptional hospitality, uncompromising quality, and dedication to professional development. Many of our interns go on to join our Management Training Program, launching successful careers in the restaurant industry.
