Help cost recipes and track waste on the weekly sheet.
Cook for banquets and conference lunches of 100 to 400 guests.
Cook steaks, burgers and grills to the temperature on the docket.
Run your station during service and call back every ticket from the pass.

Must-haves

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

List your stations (grill, pastry, cold, sauce) under each job; head chefs scan for this first.
Expect a trade test: bring your own knives, arrive early and clean as you go the whole time.
