To Whom it May Concern:
Whether you be a catering company or a San Francisco restaurant, hotel, or bar, I am interested in any bartending shifts you may have available.
I have excellent customer service skills and knowledge of a wide repertoire of cocktail recipes, knowledge of beer and wine, including food and wine pairing. I work well with fast-paced environments. I have a professional and positive attitude. I dress appropriately for the job and atmosphere of the workplace.
I am immediately available for work and would be interested in an interview to further discuss the position's responsibilities. I look forward to hearing from you.
