How long does it take to get started as an apprentice in a hotel?

It should be said that you can't "start". The so-called apprentice is to have the qualification of a chef.

As an apprentice in a hotel, you can learn some basic cooking knowledge and practical skills, and you can also learn special dishes such as the master's unique skills. But it is impossible to systematically study banquet design, cost accounting, examination of dishes, platter, carving skills and cooking theory. For example, if you learn to drive from an old driver for many years, even if the technology is mature, you are not qualified to drive, and you must obtain a "driver's license". A chef must obtain a "professional qualification certificate" to be considered a "teacher".
