For whatever reasons, some occupations have a tendency to take on identities of mythical proportions, and bartending is one of those occupations. Bartending is an awesome career to get into or just a good, fun job to have for some extra income.
Your customers will talk about you to their friends and introduce you to new people before you know it, who will also appreciate your good quality service and leave you very nice tips because of it. Ask how many years of experience the bartender has and of what kind. You must be organized, knowing where things are and having access to them at a given notice.
It can be nearly impossible to know every possible drink mixture, why is why most bartenders use mixing lists hidden under the bar to help them know what goes in each drink. That is because there are lots and lots of bartending styles, including the well known and very impressive flair style. Bartenders are expected to show their personality behind the bar.
You are in the business of not only selling drinks but of selling yourself as well. If you seem more like a friend then like an applicant you will get the job.
