Saxbys stressed that it's looking for people who meet its "O.D.D" criteria – that is, outgoing, detail-oriented and disciplined.
A job fair will be held April 9 at the company's Center City headquarters, where potential candidates will be able to interview for open positions, as long as they fill out an online application first.
The fair will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The chain has 15 locations in the Philadelphia region, including cafes in Center City, the Main Line, Bucks and Montgomery counties, and Delaware.
That includes a number on local college campuses, including stores at Temple and Drexel universities.
