How do you get a job as a chef offshore?

I want to be a chef, how hard is it to get a job?

• How hard is school? Is it easy to find a job as a chef? How much do they typically get paid?

• Answer:

  If you think out of the box, you can become a happy, well-paid chef. You just need to be on top of the trends for hiring chefs (see below). The schools aren't hard, they're fun for most people. Hands on, field trips, etc. It can be hard to find a job as a chef if you're competing with the overabundance of yesterday's over the top gourmet chefs. It can be easier to get a job as a chef if you follow the trends of being a green chef that works with locally grown and fair trade produce. There are two articles in detail on becoming this type of trendy chef. http://www.microecofarming.com/html/16-%20Chef%20Schools.htm and an eHow article at http://www.ehow.com/how_4849554_choose-chef-schools.html Ordinary non-celebrity chefs (not line-cooks, chefs) are reported to make between $60,000 and $250,000 a year. Some are also making additional streams of income as chefs by starting their own food product and selling it online, such as an apricot syrup recipe or a seasoning named after the chef.
