At some point in every student’s educational journey, the question of future plans is bound to arise.
Luckily, ICE students have a wealth of guidance available to them. We pride ourselves on maintaining a robust career services department as part of our career resources at our New York City and Los Angeles campuses, which serve both our on-campus and online student bodies.
ICE's career advisors are experienced professionals that provide students with personal mentoring and professional guidance, and most importantly, leverage ICE’s extensive network of contacts to open doors to the industry’s leading employers.
For students interested in exploring a variety of opportunities in hospitality and food careers, our New York campus hosts biannual ICE career fairs, where students and alumni can meet with recruiters from celebrated restaurant groups, successful alumni chefs and entrepreneurs and leaders in the hospitality job market. ICE's Los Angeles campus also hosts frequent recruiting events with leading industry employers both in-person on campus and online.
These events are part of the larger ICE career resources, and are not only an exceptional opportunity to learn about specific job openings, they are also the perfect time to connect with other alumni and build a network of personal contacts. Join us at an upcoming ICE Career Fair or recruitment event to discover exciting externship placement and job opportunities in the food and hospitality industries.
Through our extensive network of industry contacts and alumni, we place hundreds of graduates annually in dining and hospitality positions across the country. There has never been a better time to find your culinary voice at ICE.
"ICE students and alumni have been very valued team members at Eataly. They come with a strong base of culinary skills and, most importantly, the right attitude and motivation to do well on the job. They want to be here, and they want to learn!" — Alexis Lucente, Human Resources – Eataly USA
"I look for smiles, personality, excitement, enthusiasm — and ICE students have those qualities. Our externs from ICE have been excellent and Spice Market always looks to hire as many students out of externship as possible." - Anthony Ricco; Culinary Arts graduate, Executive Chef, The William Vale Hotel (formerly Chef de Cuisine, Spice Market)
