Are you looking for an opportunity to get your foot in the door of the food and beverage industry? Maybe you’re looking to switch fields all together and start on a culinary path? If so, our Culinary Kick-Start program is for you!

This community partnership will provide you with hands-on training, employment readiness and job placement services:

  • Hands-On Training. Each candidate will complete four full days of prep-cook training at Lowcountry Food Bank and two days of on-the-job training at Holy City Hospitality Kitchens. Participants will learn food safety and sanitation, kitchen equipment and knife basics.
  • Job Readiness Course. Succeeding in the workplace requires more than experience and training. Employers are looking for people who have the “soft skills” that lead to success. Palmetto Goodwill’s Soft Skills for Workplace Success course provides the tools candidates need to get, keep and excel in their jobs including time management, conflict resolution, workplace demeanor and professionalism.
  • Job Placements. Following the program, Goodwill will work with candidates one-on-one to identify and prepare them for appropriate job opportunities including resume writing and interview skills. The program will commence with an opportunity to interview with several restaurants including 39 Rue De Jean, Virginia’s on Kin, Coast, Victor’s Social Club and more.
