The Polo Bar by Ralph Lauren opened in 2014. The New York City restaurant hired front-of-house staffing through Julia Valler, including hosts, servers, and bartenders. The Polo Bar was filled with incredibly high-end clientele, including celebrities. The Polo Bar by Ralph Lauren entrusted over 30 staff members of Julia Valler to cycle through all of the necessary positions in an exclusive restaurant. Even with a one month “Right To Replace” opportunity given to The Polo Bar, every single one of our staff members was kept on throughout the hiring process.

The JV staffing team was responsible for being the first point of contact for the guests. With extensive training, the Check-In team would scan forms of passports, licenses, tickets, and any other sort of document needed for a seamless boarding process onto the Disney Cruise. All members were cross-trained in each department and contracted for three months every day a cruise was scheduled.
