First - use the search function on the forum pages and do a little reading.
So many folks come here asking the same question! There is a lot of advice in
prior posts.
Second - as a "seasoned" bartender and manager, I don't hire a bartender
without serving experience. This experience trains someone on how to take an
order, how to communicate with customers, how to work with other staff, how to
remember orders ..... I could go on but the list of skills is rather
exhaustive.
You should be looking at the local bars if you want to get in the door, as
stated before, chains really want someone who knows what they are doing. If
you get an offer that starts as a server - take it. In doing so, you just
showed your willingness to work and learn. By not doing so, you show that
prospective employer that you are not willing to do what is necessary to get
that much desired job. You choose.
As far as resumes go, it is good to have a well written one, one that is
poorly done will reflect upon you poorly. A well written resume shows that
you pay attention to detail, and details my dear, are what the service
industry is all about!
Best of luck to you.
