Bar Staff Jobs in Linden, NJ

These professionals may also handle cash transactions, enforce liquor laws and health regulations, and manage any issues or complaints related to the bar service.

Essential skills for a Bar Staffer include excellent customer service skills, strong communication skills, the ability to multitask, and physical stamina, as they spend most of their shift on their feet.
