Bartender Resume: Examples, Templates, and Must-Add Skills

sample resume for bartender

There’s more to bartending than pouring beers and refilling bowls of pretzels. Today, a bartender is expected to master dozens of cocktails, understand the ins and outs of various brews, and perhaps even concoct a few of their own signature drinks. They must also have excellent customer service skills.

Finally, most bartending jobs also require other administrative skills.  Bartenders are often responsible for dealing with food and beverage vendors, helping with carryout orders, and doing other back-of-the-house functions.

That’s a lot of duties, but there’s good news. A good part-time bartender working at a great spot can easily make a couple hundred dollars a night. Some full-time bartenders even make up to six figures per year or even more!

But to get there, you have to first land an interview. That means writing a great resume. Let’s start with a few tips. Later we’ll share great resume examples for bartenders (on the house!).
