Manager jobs will increase in special food services, an industry that includes food service contractors that provide food for schools, health care facilities, and other commercial businesses and in nursing and residential care for the elderly. Self-employment of these workers will generate nearly 30 percent of new jobs. Although practical experience is an integral part of finding a food service management position, applicants with hospitality or institutional food service management training will have an edge when competing for jobs at upscale restaurants and for advancement in a restaurant chain or into corporate management.
