1 Research the employer

Before any interview, your students should do some homework on the potential employer. They should learn about the restaurant's concept, menu, style, and reputation. They should also find out who will be interviewing them and what their role and expectations are. This will help them tailor their answers, showcase their relevant skills and experience, and ask insightful questions.

See the restaurant as a customer for your talents, why should they buy your services? Package that very well. Organisations hire you to go deliver in exchange for pay. Its a talent and skills market - package your offering properly. You must therefore fully understand what and who they are looking for and use that infomation to prepare for the interview. Read and fully comprehend the Job description and comptencies. Draw two columns ..one column representing what they seek and the other column showing how you match the requirements ??

Por mi experiencia en mi trabajo, cuando se va a una entrevista de trabajo culinario, aparte de saber quien es la empresa empleadora, y todo lo que explica este articulo. Yo aconsejo que consigas que el entrevistador vea que tienes vocación por el trabajo y eres capaz de adaptarte a la filosofía de la empresa y siempre dedicada a la consecución de los objetivos marcados por la empresa; e interesada por el orden y la calidad en general, responsable y siempre disponible para el trabajo en equipo, con iniciativa, amable, sociable y con mucha empatía, amor y humanización; siempre respetando y cuidando a todos tus compa?eros, clientes y a la empresa. Nuestro Objetivo, tu bienestar. #alimentossaludables #cocinaconcorazon ??

Conduct thorough research on a potential employer is crucial to tailor your application materials and interview responses and ensure the company aligns with your personal and professional values. Company Website: Learn its history, mission, and offerings. Culture: Check social media for workplace vibes. Financials: For public companies, skim annual reports. Reputation: Browse reviews on Glassdoor or Indeed. News: Search for recent company events or launches. Competitors: Know the company's market rivals. Role Details: Understand the job's specifics. Size & Locations: Gauge work environment and travel needs. Benefits: Useful for later negotiations. Ethics: Ensure alignment with your values. Growth & Challenges: Spot opportunities and hurdles

2 Practice common questions

There are some questions that are likely to come up in any culinary job interview, such as "Why do you want to work here?", "What are your strengths and weaknesses as a chef?", and "How do you handle stress, feedback, and teamwork?". You can help your students practice these questions by conducting mock interviews, giving constructive feedback, and suggesting ways to improve their responses. You can also challenge them with some scenario-based questions, such as "How would you deal with a customer complaint?", "How would you handle a food safety issue?", and "How would you create a special dish using these ingredients?".

Under general questions - prepare for questions to do with your achievements ( keep them work related- nobody is asking for your academic certs) . It could be new recipe innovations, big events management , costing , happy customers etc

3 Dress and act professionally

Your students should dress appropriately for the interview, depending on the type and level of the position they are applying for. They should avoid wearing anything too casual, flashy, or distracting. They should also bring a copy of their resume, a portfolio of their work, and any certificates or awards they have earned. They should arrive on time, greet the interviewer politely, and maintain eye contact and good posture throughout the interview. They should also avoid using slang, chewing gum, or checking their phone.

4 Demonstrate passion and enthusiasm

One of the most important qualities that employers look for in culinary candidates is passion and enthusiasm for cooking, learning, and growing. Your students should demonstrate this by expressing their interest in the restaurant's vision, mission, and values, as well as their own culinary goals, inspirations, and achievements. They should also show their willingness to learn from the interviewer, the team, and the customers. They should also highlight their creativity, flexibility, and adaptability to different situations and challenges.

5 Follow up and thank the interviewer

After the interview, your students should send a thank-you note to the interviewer, either by email or by mail. They should express their appreciation for the opportunity, restate their interest in the position, and highlight their main qualifications and skills. They should also mention something specific that they learned or enjoyed from the interview, such as a question, a comment, or a suggestion. They should also ask about the next steps in the hiring process and when they can expect to hear back from the employer.

Prepare aslo for culinary technical questions ,stuff to do with any regulations, quality assurance, cost control , your perfect cuisines etc as indicated in the Job descriptions. In your preparation you can use examples from your internship or from work if you are already employed . When giving examples use the PAR (Problem, action and results ) or Star ( situation , tadk , action and results ) technique to package your answers.
