As an equal opportunity employer, the Kalispel Tribe embraces diversity and inclusion in its workforce while adhering to a policy of Indian preference in employment consistent with federal law. The Tribe prioritizes hiring qualified Kalispel Tribal Members first, followed by spouses of enrolled members, enrolled members of other Indian tribes, and then all other applicants. This equitable hiring policy reflects the Tribe's dedication to sustaining its community and supporting tribal sovereignty through economic initiatives and employment opportunities. The Kalispel Tribe operates Kalispel Hospitality, a service-oriented division that upholds the Tribe's core values and mission to provide exceptional customer experiences.

The position is designed for individuals who take pride in delivering outstanding guest service, who are attentive, flexible, and committed to teamwork. Employment with the Kalispel Tribe is at-will, and all candidates undergo thorough background checks and drug testing to maintain a safe and professional workplace. The Server role involves greeting guests with a warm smile and friendly attitude, explaining daily specials in detail, and offering recommendations on appealing menu items. Servers take beverage orders and deliver them promptly while guests are reviewing their menus, followed by taking food orders in the correct sequence and gender protocol by serving women first.

Maintaining assigned sections and server stations in a clean, organized, and well-stocked state is paramount for smooth operations. In addition to direct guest interaction duties, servers contribute to the overall success of the team by assisting colleagues, completing side work responsibilities such as cleaning and stocking, and adhering to all established side work lists. Accurate completion of paperwork and record-keeping, including tips tracking, is required at the end of each shift. Participation in ongoing training and special projects helps to ensure that servers stay updated with policies and continue to deliver excellent service, furthering the Tribe's reputation for hospitality excellence.
