This week The Boston Globe published an article on the staffing shortage the restaurant and hospitality industry is facing. Snapchef was front and center as a viable solution for major dining services, including our partner NexDine, whose co-founder David Lanci is quoted saying “I can just pick up the phone, deal with the app, and my people get qualified candidates” when referring to Snapchef . Written by Samantha Subin, the article also mentions Snapchef’s recent partnership with leading culinary school Rouxbe and our online Fast Track training program which gets new workers ready for the hospitality industry in just 20 hours. Scott Samuel, VP of Culinary at Rouxbe, is also quoted on our collaborative plans to roll-out two additional Snapchef Fast Track Courses on the Rouxbe platform – another exciting development and commitment to our career training and advancement opportunities for our hard working Snapchefs.
The article also taps insights from industry leaders including Snapchef friend and supporter Steve Clark, VP of Government Affairs at the Massachusetts Restaurant Association, who weighs-in on hot topics including workers reporting burn out, unemployment supplements and Baby Boomer retirement.
