My classes are scheduled to wrap up on December 19. At that point, we do an externship that runs through the beginning of April. Where we do an externship is completely up to us as long as certain criteria are met. Some people take the opportunity to go to Europe or New York. My initial intention was to go to a big restaurant or resort but reality set in and I decided to focus my search to the central Texas area. I interviewed for and got an externship at the Driskill Hotel yesterday. It's one of the finer hotels in Austin and it has a highly regarded bakery. The hotel offers fine dining, casual dining and banquet experience. It also does a high retail cake business. It's an unpaid externship but I feel fortunate to get it. I wish I could start sooner - the holiday season is the best and busiest time to be in a bakery.
