By 2020, more people in the United States will work in the foodservice industry than in manufacturing. Who are these new workers and how can we best prepare them for the busy, often chaotic, world of foodservice? In this episode we go behind-the-scenes with chefs and restaurant owners to discover what they look for in new hires. We also hear from non-profit leaders running culinary training programs and hear from young students about why they're interested in foodservice jobs.
