  • Monitor guest feedback and respond proactively to food quality concerns, special dietary requirements, and requests for customized dining experiences.
  • Ensure proper stock rotation, receiving procedures, storage conditions, and inventory management to maintain food quality and minimize losses.
  • Support the Executive Chef in implementing culinary standards, standard operating procedures, and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Perform other related duties as assigned by the Executive Chef or management.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
