Drink
knowledge The most common skill that is needed in Australia is how to pour a fantastic beer.
Australian's are very critical on the perfect beer pour and the common pour from the rest of the
world will not make the grade here. Knowledge of spirits and cocktails is also advisable, but can
also be learnt easily on the job.
Personality Having
a great personality will help you elevate your bartending career. A happy bartender will keep
patrons in a happy mood, happy patrons are more likely to spend money of beverages and leave bigger
tips. The really good bartenders will earn more from tips than their
wage.
Flexibility A
bartending career can cover a range of tasks, from customer service to stock control. It can also
let you work at any time of day if you can make yourself available. Employers are also likely to
favour the bartender that shows flexibility in the workplace.
