Hi All!
Just to let you know I went to the interview yesterday for inflight chef at LHR LSG/skychefs Halal unit.
So let me report what I did for future fellow candidates;
*fill in the forms (personal details etc.)
*the reasoning test, out of the cabin crew manual you need to respond to 20 questions, I guess this test is to see how well you understand english etc. read all questions thoroughly, they are sneaky ones!
*preperation of a main course; there are some prepared ingredients, as a cook you should'nt have a problem, all the "work" is already done.
*roleplay, 2 recruiters go sit in a chair and act like they are F class PAX, you need to interact to there wishes, present the menu, recommend wines, they will do some religion stuff on you like they don't want to sit next to a guy who drinks alcohol etc.
Just be nice and make there wishes come true! Anyway you learned this at the cooking school too!
*after that they said they will be in touch next week...
Basically that was it for me.
Werner Kimmeringer was there and he is a really nice guy!
I' am currently employed as a chef at an airline catering unit so we where quite on the same level!
I still recomend to ask a lot of questions about cooking on board!
I already knew a lot of the limitations, but it still is interesting for the non-aviation cooks!
