  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
  • During a shift in kitchen we do so many things but we don't know why we do like that, in academy we learn so many new things but important is we understand the sense of the things we news already and that give more sense to the job we do

  • 8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
  • Oh, yes, we have so many. Probably the most important one is the MABster chef, a culinary competition where we can show our ability and technique. We do minimum 2 times a year a team out night using our golden ticket which is a company reward for achieving some targets in the keys days

  • 9b. Why?
  • First and firs because they will have to work with me and that is a rare opportunity. Second: our company give a secure job whith a good progress opportunity. 3th: because we have so many pubs and restaurants all over the country is very easy to change the job if you change house
