If a survey was taken of employees in the business world, a surprising number would admit to moonlighting as a bartender. Many of us might think being a bartender is a walk in the park.
First and foremost, you have to learn how to physically set up the bar. Unless you plan to have a bar back position, someone who cleans and stocks the bar because the bartender is too busy, you must also make sure your bartenders are not just good drink pourers, but also good at keep the bar clean, well stocked, and organized. As a bartender, you will be put into big pressure situations, working long hours, dealing with other people who are sometimes drunk, dealing with money.
Having fun while you work and smiling will attract attention and draw more clientele towards you. Graduates can find employment in any type of hospitality setting, including nightclubs, restaurants, hotels, local bars and pubs, airports, or wherever alcohol is served. Though you will have many opportunities for intimate encounters, stay focused on your career and that you are there to make a living.
Through word of mouth and a great personality you can help make your place of work busy. Even if you have never bartended before finding a great bartending job is easy if you have the right plan.
