This book is recommended for people who want a thorough introduction to careers in the culinary world today. — Library Journal, Eric Petersen, Kansas City Public Library, Missouri
With the tips in Culinary Careers, you can turn your love of food into the job of a lifetime.
Cooking on the line in a restaurant is one way to make a living in the food industry, but there are so many other ways to do it. Rick Smilow, president of the Institute of Culinary Education (ICE), an award-winning culinary school in New York City, knows this better than anyone else. He has seen ICE graduates get great jobs in and out of professional kitchens. Culinary Careers is the only career book that can help you find your dream job by giving you honest descriptions of dozens and dozens of desirable jobs at all levels. It does this by tapping into the large alumni network and other sources.
Culinary Careers doesn’t just give vague, general descriptions of different jobs. Instead, it has exclusive interviews with well-known people in the food world and people on their way up, so you can find out what a day in your desired field is really like.
• Get the best advice from people like Lidia Bastianich, Thomas Keller, and Ruth Reichl, who are at the top of their fields.
• Find out if you must go to cooking school to get the job you want.
• Read about the exciting and sometimes unusual ways people got to where they are now.
• Find out what employers are looking for and how you can do well in interviews.
• Find out what a day is like for a food stylist on an extensive movie set, how a top New York City public relations firm got started, what to look for in a yacht crew before becoming the chef, and much more.
Culinary Careers is a must-have resource for anyone wanting to break into the food industry, whether looking for their first job or wanting to switch careers. It has information on educational programmes and a bird’s-eye view of the industry.
