Recent Reviews of Only Chefs

"We spend a lot of money on recruitment through agencies and direct job advertising, both of which have mixed results. Only Chefs offers an innovative way for my team to cost effectively search and engage with Chefs at all levels."
E. Fisher
Group Recruitment Manager
"Only Chefs is great! We have already used the site to hire a Sous Chef and being able to quickly search, shortlist and contact Chefs directly has taken the hassle out of a process that usually takes up a lot of my time."
F. Barnes
Chef Patron
"I registered with Only Chefs and within a week had been offered a job as a Sous Chef in a top London restaurant. I have applied to many job ads in the past on other sites but rarely got a single response. So happy!"
L. Miles
