Some full-service, dinner-house chains have in-house, chef-training programs. Applicants generally must have basic cooking skills and one to two years experience cooking in a company restaurant or a full-service eating place. After about a year of on-the-job training and testing by the company Chefs, successful trainees are promoted to Unit Chef, when there are openings. 2, record 2, English, - dinnerhouse
