15. What techniques do you use to upsell?
How to Answer
Interviewers in restaurants need to hear that you are comfortable upselling. Tell the interviewer that you might offer each table the opportunity to buy dessert or an after dinner drink. Mention that you might ask if appetizers are of interest. And, if the restaurant offers the same plate in two portion sizes, state that you would ask the customer if they would like to order the next size up for a small increase in price.
