:: PRUE LEITH :: TOP CATERING
Top catering jobs guarenteed
So, you have decided that you would like to have a career
in catering. That's all very well, but not much good
if you end up as a cook in some small and nasty restaurant
- you want a top job when you finish your training.
Just like any other profession, a career in the culinary
world means working your way up to the top from the bottom,
and believe me, any catering job you get you will always
have to work your way up. But that's fair -
you don't become head chef straight out of college,
you become an apprentice first. Apprentices construct their
careers from their apprenticeships. In catering most of
the training is done on the job while working under a sous-chef
who helps the apprentice learn the business.
There is one catering school in South Africa where you
stand a better chance than others in getting a top catering
job after graduation; and that is the Prue Leith Chef's
Academy. The academy is based in Centurion, and here's
the attraction of starting your career at this school. They
not only have a catering company as part of the group, they
also have a restaurant and, wait for it, they have just
started their own placement company in order to more easily
fit graduates into top jobs once they have graduated from
the academy.
If you're interested in starting a career in the
culinary trade, you might like to take a look at the Prue
