  • One year of experience as a cook in a commercial food service facility; OR
  • Possession of a Certificate of Completion in culinary arts and/or Foods and Hospitality Service from a certified community college or technical school.

This position is designated as a critical or security-sensitive position; therefore, the incumbent must successfully complete a criminal history check and be determined to be position qualified as per University Standard: 05-010 et seq. Incumbents are required to self-report convictions and those in youth programs may have additional criminal history checks every 24 months.

Preferred Qualifications:

Flexibility in work shifts in necessary. Shift and/or work assignment may be changed based on operational needs. Because we are responsible for providing all meals for the student residents; and because there are residents living on campus all year, seven days a week, early morning, evening, weekend, and holiday work may be required.

Good attendance is crucial for stability and day-to-day business needs. Must follow attendance schedule and break schedules, and must be on time and in uniform when shift begins.
