You’re thinking about bartending school, and you’re weighing the pros and cons. You want to go; you’re interested. It seems like a good move. But will it help you get a job as a bartender?

A bartending certificate from an established school  is absolutely a good way to go about getting hired as a bartender. In order to be hired at a bar, you need experience bartending. If you have no experience, the best and fastest way to get experience is to attend bartending school. The best kind of bartending school to go to is a physical one, not an online school. You want to become a student at a physical school with a classroom, where you can participate in practical classroom time and build your bartending skill set.

What Bar Owners Look For

A hiring manager or bar owner is obviously going to want to hire an applicant that has experience behind a bar. Very rarely will they hire a person with no experience- it’s practically unheard of! They look for people who have a comprehensive knowledge of a variety of drinks and cocktails. Prospective employers also want bartenders who are able to handle large crowds. They want someone who is knowledgeable with drinks, works quickly, and who is great with customers. If you don’t have these necessary skills, they will not be interested in even calling you for an interview. But don’t let a lack of experience put you off of bartending. There is a simple solution, and that is a bartending license through National Bartending School!
