So you’ve been sitting in your interview, answering questions and chatting for maybe half a year.
You’ve met and talked with all these people before, and it is totally lame how they still want to know more. Didn’t they read the application? And it was – ahem – a really great application. The essay killed.
And now they want to know if you have questions for them. Fine. When can I find out which scholarship I get?
Okay. Most definitely NOT THE QUESTION you want to ask. So here are a few to get you started thinking.
- How would you assess the differences among the culinary programs at A, B, and X schools?
- What can I expect during my first year of culinary studies?
- What do you see as the most important qualities in a professional chef?
- A degree or certificate is only one step toward becoming a professional. What other things are important?
- How important is travel to my culinary education?
- What do you look for in your students?
- Is there anything you would change about your career and why?
- You’ve seen my work. What three things could I do to improve my performance?
- What do you see changing in the profession that I should consider as I start my studies?
- Do you have any other questions for me?
(PS – You never know who's reading this blog. Parrot this list at your own risk.)
Coming tomorrow…passion in the kitchen.
