Are you looking to earn some extra money this festive break? Here are 10 reasons to consider a bar job this Christmas.
1. The money is often better than working in retail, so if you're looking for part-time work, it's often the most popular option.
2. The shifts are often ideal if you're trying to fit it around your studies.
3. Bar jobs are ideal second jobs, especially if you need to find work during evenings or weekends.
4. Pubs are fun places to work, largely because you'd be working in a social environment.
5. Bar skills could come in handy later in life, whether you need a second job or something to tide you over between other career moves.
6. Over the Christmas period, there is obviously an increased demand for bar staff throughout every town and city. As such, you should find it relatively easy to find opportunities.
7. Because there's so much demand for bar staff, there is often a great deal of flexibility when it comes to choosing shifts - ideal if you need to fit them around your home life.
8. In some bar jobs, you may be allowed to earn tips from customers, which provides a useful bonus on your weekly wage.
9. Working in an pub, club or any other drinking establishment may be hectic work, but it's not as taxing as some others. Plus, the hectic pace means the hours fly be.
10. On key dates over Christmas, many establishments offer improved incentives - such as double-time pay or days in lieu.
So, if you think you'd like to find this type of work, why not start looking for bar jobs today? If you're in full-time education, but want to earn some extra money while you study this Christmas, student bar jobs may be worth looking for.
