Bartending Jobs In Cleveland
Bartending jobs in Cleveland are on the rise. Growth and new
construction can take credit for several of these openings. But
other openings are just results of the standard turnover that’s
common in this field. Some bartenders move around a lot. Maybe
it’s because a skilled bartender can find a job any where
without much trouble since there’s always a need for their
services.
According to a U.S. Department of Labor report, Ohio had over
485,000 bartenders actively employed in 2006. Those figures have
undoubtedly increased since that report was released.
Restaurants and bars, pubs and lounges employ the most. But,
that’s to be expected. Hotels hire another large percentage of
the employed bartenders. These figures also include the
bartenders hired for special events and other miscellaneous
bartending jobs.
Finding the right bartending job in Cleveland shouldn’t be a
difficult task. Reading the newspaper’s classified ads or
checking on the internet, should provide you with a list that
will surely please any unemployed bartender.
But if none of the listings interest you, find a place where you
would be interested in working, walk on in and apply for a job.
Some places don’t even know their looking for you until you get
there.
Don’t be discouraged by a low starting salary. A good bartender
can make $200-$300 a shift in the right place. And a good
bartender can make anyplace the “right” place. One way to
increase your business and your tips is by learning a little
flair bartending. That’s making and serving drinks with a little
added panache or flair. Word of your entertaining methods will
spread quickly and soon customers will come to watch you as much
as they come to drink. Just be sure you’re able to do this
without spilling or breaking anything. And be sure you can do it
without wasting time or effort when you’re busy. Some customers
won’t mind a little wait while they’re being entertained, but
other staff (incapable of flair bartending) might have a problem
with it. Also be sure you have the approval of your management.
