Frequently asked
What we get asked most.
About the process, the conditions and the day-to-day in the house. If anything is still unclear, write to info@restaurantelospinochos.com.
Which roles are open right now?
It depends on the moment, but we are usually looking for an experienced cook, kitchen assistant, head waiter and sommelier. If your background is bar, management or office, we would also like to hear from you. Send us your application with the role you are after in the dropdown and we will let you know.
What does the selection process look like?
We read your application carefully (no bots, we read every one ourselves). If there is a match we call you for a short interview. Depending on the role, we then arrange a real trial in the kitchen or on the floor, one service or a couple of hours, so both of us can see if there is a fit.
What conditions do you offer?
Permanent contract, pay above the Castilla y Leon hospitality agreement, two consecutive days off (Tuesday and Wednesday), schedules planned in advance, staff meal on the day and a serious kitchen environment with no shouting.
Is previous experience a must?
It depends on the role. For an experienced cook, yes, we need someone who has already worked in a restaurant kitchen. For kitchen assistant, bar or internship roles, we value attitude, willingness and the desire to learn over years on the line. If in doubt, send us your application anyway.
What is the schedule? Are there dinners or double weekends?
Lunch service only, 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. No dinners. Tuesdays and Wednesdays the restaurant is closed, so you always have two consecutive days off. Weekends are rotated across the team.
Do you take interns or candidates without full paperwork?
Yes, we accept students on internship (hospitality, sommelier, kitchen management) with an agreement in place with their school. For all other roles we need the proper documentation so we can formalise a contract from day one.
Is there room to grow in the house?
Yes. We are a small, focused project, not a large chain: responsibilities are real and people with judgement and consistency grow into more senior roles. We have promoted kitchen assistants to cook, and cooks to sous-chef, as the team has grown.
