The countdown to the return of Farrell’s Ice Cream Parlour to Riverside is moving right along.

Get your “Happyitis” in working order, because the restaurant is hosting a job fair from noon to 6 p.m. December 3 to 5 next to its future home at 3610 Park Sierra Drive.

The chain is looking to fill 160 positions, including servers, hosts, bussers, cooks, food runners, experienced expediters, dishwashers, office personnel, fountain artisans, porters, and managers.

Although hospitality experience is a plus, having an outgoing, friendly personality also helps.

Prospective “cast members” are encouraged to complete and print the interactive job application ahead of time and to arrive early to the job fair, as more than 2,000 applicants attended both the Rancho Cucamonga and Brea hiring events.

Hosts and servers who get called back will participate in group auditions December 11 to 13.

The Riverside location is scheduled to open in January 2013.
