QUESTION 4 OF 30

What are your goals as a barback?

This question is more about your short-term goals than your five-year plan. The hiring manager wants to make sure that you focus on being the best barback you can be instead of how quickly you can move up to bartending.

Be specific about what you want to accomplish during the short term. Answers should focus on impacting the guest experience and help make the bartender's job easier.

"My immediate goals would be to learn how each of the bartenders operates. Each bartender has a preference on how they want their bar maintained and what should be the priority. I find that once I understand their preference, I make sure it is taken care of before moving on to the next task."
