Bar Job Interview. Curious to know..

M

Mantello

Tomorrow I have my 3rd and final interview for a bar attending / restaurant waiting job for a very classy and high standard club. First was the online application, second was phone interview and 3rd will obviously be the get to know you part and meet me in person.

The question I have and am actually wondering is this face to face interview tomorrow goes for 3 hours from 9am to 12pm. What exactly am I to even expect? They haven't told me, but I would assume I won't be sitting in an office in that time. Is there anything I would need to expect or be thoroughly prepared for?

Please don't derail the topic.
 
Being a bartender means you're expected to know a few things

1) Can you fight off a group of drunks? This guy will expect you to know at least one form of martial art. Lie if you have to, and don't wait for him to ask.

2) Bartenders must understand the ins and outs of alcoholism. Explain to him that you once had problems with drugs and alcohol but you're in total control now. Tip him off that because of your previous addiction, you can now spot people of trouble i.e. "I knew he was trouble because he reminded me of me and what I used to do."

3) Pretend to be gay. No one likes to have to compete with the bartender for women. Trick the manager into thinking you're queer and it's almost a sure thing you'll be hired regardless of whether or not you pull off 1 & 2
 
Is it an open interview? I once got offered a job as a croupier at a London casino and the 'interview' was basically getting all the candidates together to play cards. They were looking for people with social skills etc etc. Could be similar to that.
 
I'm going to guess that they are going to spend that time determining that you really ARE a dead end, and don't have potential to get a real job and move on leaving them hanging.

But you are already a bartender so I guess that bit you should pass easily enough.

The rest? Fuck knows what they need you for 3 hours for? Maybe it's just to get 3 hours free labour out of suckers.

(or meanwhile they are round ur place boning ur sister)
