Asked on WhatsApp
Questions.
Will I get a job?
We can’t promise one. You get 28 hours on real shifts at a Taja outlet, and trainees who do well may be hired.
Do I need any experience?
No. The course starts from your very first shot.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes, when you finish the course and pass the written test and interview. [CERTIFICATE_WORDING]
Nepali or English?
[TEACHING_LANGUAGE]
Why not a cheaper course?
Look at what’s in the fee: 68 hours, food pairing with Taja Bakery’s chef and 28 hours on shift at a Taja outlet. Then compare.
