New servers attend an orientation covering Green Apple's service standards, tray handling, plated and passed service techniques, and safety protocols. You'll also receive an on-site briefing from the Event Captain before each event with specific details about the menu and service format. Green Apple provides specific uniform guidelines for each event. The standard uniform is all black (black shirt, black pants, black non-slip shoes). For certain events, additional uniform elements may be provided or specified by the client. How are event shifts assigned? Shifts are assigned based on the event calendar and your availability. Our events team sends out shift opportunities in advance, and you confirm which ones work for your schedule. Consistent availability and strong performance lead to priority scheduling. Do servers handle both plated and buffet service? Yes. Green Apple events use a variety of service formats including plated dinners, buffet stations, passed hors d'oeuvres, and family-style service. You should be comfortable working in all formats, and your Event Captain will brief you on the specific setup for each event.
