The team

Working at c/o56 Chemnitz

What you should know about training!

  • What can you expect in the culinary profession?

    Chefs cook – that much is clear. But first, the menu or menu card must be filled with content. You will also take care of this planning in this job. You calculate prices, purchase ingredients and take care of food storage and preparation. When the restaurant is packed, efficient workflows in the kitchen are essential. As a chef, you are responsible for ensuring that meals are ready on time.



  • What should you bring to the job of chef?

    If you're not good at working in a team, you'll unfortunately have a hard time in the kitchen. There, it's important that everyone works together like clockwork. In addition, you should have a good dose of organisational talent for this job. Your dexterity and good physical condition are required when it comes to cutting and filleting meat, for example. A good dose of care and responsibility is also necessary, especially with regard to hygiene regulations. Your creativity is the icing on the cake – because nothing is more boring for a guest than a plate that has been put together without care.

  • What school qualifications do you need?

    From a legal perspective, there are no requirements regarding which school-leaving certificate you need to train as a chef. In practice, most companies mainly hire trainees with a secondary school leaving certificate or a secondary school diploma. And if you even have a high school diploma, then you're in the right place in this industry. You may be able to shorten your training and very quickly take on positions of responsibility in this great industry.
