A degree in hotel and restaurant management, such as a vocational certificate (CAP) or a higher technical certificate (BTS) in hotel and restaurant management, option B: art of service and commercialization in restaurants, is valued. Specific training in mixology or professional bartender certifications can set candidates apart. Knowledge of hygiene and food safety regulations is essential.
With experience, a bartender can progress to positions such as head bartender, bar manager, or owner of their establishment. Participating in mixology competitions and engaging in continuous training are ways to enrich skills and stand out in the field.
Temporary work offers bartenders the opportunity to experience different work environments, enrich their skill set, and build an extensive professional network. This diversity of experiences strengthens their adaptability and creativity, key assets in this sector. For establishments, using temporary bartenders allows maintaining a high quality of service during special events or to compensate for the temporary absence of staff, thus ensuring customer satisfaction.
