Part-Time Barista | Sheraton DFW Airport | Irving, TX

What You’ll Do:

To some, you’re a person who makes drinks. To others, you’re a friend, confidant, part-time therapist, and the #1 reason they got up this morning. Our Baristas are responsible for preparing and serving drinks and food items in a warm and inviting manner—even at ridiculously early hours of the day. You must be a natural-born people person. You will be interacting with hotel guests and other patrons all day long, so a friendly, outgoing personality is essential. We want you to develop rapport with customers by learning their names, favorite drinks, and favorite foods.

Here are a few things you can expect to do on a typical day:

• Relaying your understanding of coffee and tea regions and the various differences in flavor and blends to customers.
• Taking orders and conveying them to team members for preparation.
• Maintaining inventory by replenishing coffee bean & food supply and stocking brewing equipment.
• You will preferably have worked in a restaurant before, but if not, its ok - we can train you, as long as you have the desire to learn and impact our guests in a positive way!

Where You’ve Been:

We’re looking for someone with a High School diploma (or equivalent) and a Food Handler’s Permit. Previous experience in the food & beverage industry is a definite plus. The ability to think on your feet and work calmly under pressure is essential. Multi-taskers, we want you!

When You’re Here:

This probably goes without saying, but you’ll be on your feet a lot. There will be occasions when you may be carrying/lifting up to 25 pounds, walking, bending/twisting, and climbing stairs. You’ll be needed to work flexible schedules, including weekends. But wait, there’s a great upside: in exchange for your flexibility, we offer excellent pay, hotel discounts, and the opportunity to be part of an anything-but-standard growing hotel company.
