Thank you for inquiring about our listings of bartending schools in California. Bartending in California is a tough career to break into without prior experience or training at a professional school. Bartending in California can be a lucrative full or part-time job. If you want to begin work in a neighbourhood pub, an upscale business hotel or one of the country’s hottest nightclubs, you need to have the proper training before applying for that job.
Bar managers throughout California receive many applications every week from people with no experience or training who want to break into the bar and restaurant industry. Those applications usually end up in the trash or are offered jobs as hosting and wait staff. Bartenders in California can earn $300 to $800 a night in tips and have a great time doing it! Thinking you can get that bartending job without training or experience is a mistake.
