I have been a Corp. Chef and Exec. Chef. I know Aramark and love to see if you have something for me. I have been in the buisness for 18yrs. Would love to send you my resume, but can't find a link to let me in.
Respectfully, Davasha Stalarow

If you want to send your career down the drain put on your resume ARAMARK, SODEXHO or COMPASS... you will be not welcomed anymore anywhere else. You have no room to be yourself, you will be making HOSPITAL FOOD with HOSPITAL FLAVOR even if you are at the stadium.

STAY AWAY

tour chef in Parkville, Maryland

thepoet. Bernard T, couldn't have said it better myself. Aramark is a graveyard, it's for people that graduate from culinary school and call themselves Exec. Chefs. I've studied over in Europe in 2 and 3 star restaurants, done 2 apprenticeships and culinary school. The best experience i got was studying under 4 Master Chefs, both European, and CMC's. That's were you're going to get your credentials. Poet, just make sure you have a very, very strong classical foundation before applying for certain positions. The last thing you want to do is walk into a position and nice salary, and end up getting fired in a matter of months. Then you stand to get blackballed very easily. Believe me when I say that it's a very small network, and it stretches around the globe. That network is the one u want to be in. It's the one with 5 star 5 diamond ratings, Michelin stars, and Private clubs. So just be sure that "Executive Chef" title that may have been held previously can apply in that realm. Otherwise you may want to look for an Exec. Sous position, or even a Chef De Cuisine position at a quality spot. That's how u get your foot in the door. U may want to look at joining ACF (American Culinary Federation) and acquire certifications as well if you already haven't. I hope this may help a bit.

tourcatering in Downers Grove, Illinois

I am looking for an executive chef that has experience in catering. I am the director of operations for a backstage tour catering company. We supply quality food and hospitality services for artist's that are looking for a caterer to take with them on the road. We have done dozens of tours including, American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance, Britney Spears, Aerosmith, Rascal Flatts, Taylor Swift, Shakira, America's Got Talent, those are just the tours. We also do local shows in Chicago, Indiana, Southern Florida, and Texas. We recently moved our business from Chicago to the Dallas area. Please let me remind you that this is not an oppurtunity to get a free ticket to a show, you are working for the Artist and the crew. There is no autographs or pictures if any of these things should happen, you will be fired on the spot. We run a tight ship, and things are to be done to a certain standard. I have worked with great chefs and I have worked with chef's who think they are the best and have an attitude to go along with it. Let me also remind you that we need chefs that have a flexible schedule. if a tour were to come up you could be traveling up to 3-6 months at a time on a tour bus. We expect our employees to have a good attitude towards cooking and their peers. If one person has a bad attitude, everyone else is going to have a bad attitude as well.

We are looking for chef's who have had at least 2 years of experience. I will need to see a resume and I will be contacting you for an interview.

This would be a great job if I was 25 or 30. I would love to do
this as it would let me use all my creative talents.
But, I have a large Dog [companion], and I don't think they are
allowed in this type of 'gig'. I love the cooking and the travel
aspect, wish I could interview for this position.
Thank you.

Yes these companies are a joke, first they want to pick you up dirt cheap and promise you the world. They make you work your butt off to serve bland tasteless Hospital Food as the same for all of there locations. Stay away from these 3 companies listed. Big talk no results.
