What are the responsibilities and job description for the Line Cook - Apprenticeship Program position at Kalahari Resorts & Conventions?
Description
Kalahari Resorts & Conventions delivers a beyond expectations waterpark resort and conference experience all under one roof. The authentically African-themed resort is home to America’s largest indoor waterparks and features well-appointed guest rooms, full-service Spa Kalahari, a fun-filled family entertainment center, on-site signature restaurants, unique retail shops and a state-of-the-art convention center.
We are inviting you to apply for our open Culinary Apprentice – Line Cook. This track offers on-the-job training, mentoring relationships with regular coaching, and an opportunity to connect and build life-long relationships with culinary leaders and peers. There is a select number of spots available in this program. The apprenticeship is front-line work, mixed with learning various cooking roles in the kitchen. This experience does rotate between different areas/kitchens, but you may be asked to help in other areas as business volumes vary. If you’re interested in learning systems, working in multiple concepts, scratch cooking and finding out how Kalahari feeds the masses – down to an intimate dinner – this is for you! Previous cooking experience is necessary. All Kalahari properties have multiple concepts, from coffee and scratch-pastry shops, sit-down restaurants, a beverage operation, to a full-service convention center. As a Culinary Apprentice you will gain the unforgettable experience of being part of our back-of-the-house teams in either: Double Cut Steak House, Sortino’s, Cinco Niño’s, B-Lux Bar & Grill, Cinco Nino’s, waterpark eateries, banquets, baking/pastry, and the production kitchen.
