"We need people who can hit the ground running.
"Don't know how much time we've wasted on the wrong people, so please only apply if you have the work ethic to succeed."
Chefs are a "dying breed at the minute" due to people leaving the industry, Craig adds.
"I'll personally put the time and effort in to train the right people.
"You must be smart, presentable and not come in absolutely stinking of drink or p*ss after a night out.

"If you need a mint before the interview then there's a shop next door.
"If you feel your pits are a little fruity then nip and buy some deodorant quickly before the interview."
Hospitality "takes away your weekends", he continued, "so be prepared to lose your social life".
"Don't worry, I'll open up the Irish Bar on Wednesdays and Sundays just for you lot with discounted drinks all night with no work the next day.
"I'll even get in karaoke first singing a bit of Let's Get Ready to Rumble.
"If you have a spare Sunday, then that's absolutely rammed so I will even offer the right people looking for extra income just Sunday hours!"
The George is looking for head chefs, kitchen assistants, bar staff, Sunday delivery drivers and pot washers.
Roles are available across its Stockton Redcar Middlesbrough and Darlington venues.
Craig is also looking for people to fill admin roles and online marketing consultants to join them at Stockton Business Hub and Dad Loves Food HQ.
