7 reasons why it's awesome to be a bartender

Why become a bartender?

Night worker, psychotherapist and object of desire: Bartenders don't just have an interesting job. The profession is also extremely popular. Why? We have described the top 7 reasons why it's simply awesome to be a bartender.

Reason no. 1: the tip

What does a bartender earn? Of course, it varies depending on the employment relationship and working environment. But this much can be revealed: Men and women behind the bar can often make a good living from tips. The wages are then put into a savings account - for the next trip, the dream education or the new car.

Reason no. 2: the job guarantee

Expert cocktail mixers and bar managers are constantly in demand, not only in the catering trade but also in the hotel industry. Why? Every large hotel has its own hotel bar. And as you know - guests like to treat themselves to good drinks. Reason enough to rely on trained specialist staff in this area.

By the way: HOGASTJOB has a wide range of suitable job offers - whether as a bartender, chef de bar or assistant bartender.


Reason no. 3: You are constantly meeting new people

Are you a curious person and love meeting new people? Perfect - then get behind the bar! If you provide your guests with original drinks, you can easily strike up a conversation with your counterpart. One or two acquaintances have already led to great opportunities - both professionally and privately.

Reason no. 4: Free time? Enough!

The advantage of being a bartender: the working hours. You usually work late shifts, which means evenings or even nights. Ergo: during the day you still have enough time for summit tours, sailing trips, pottery workshops or sommelier courses.

At the supermarket, at the pharmacy, at the post office: As a bartender, you're guaranteed to never have to queue again. Because when you're doing your errands, the others are usually at work. Sounds cool? It is!

Reason no. 7: You always know the right drink!

In your opinion, which professional group receives the most invitations to private parties? Of course: bartenders know the best cocktails and mix them for friends and their friends' friends.
