I worked a while on my resume & even got help with it from a local coffee shop owner. I got an interview based on the strength of my resume, 200 applicants didnt even make it to the interview stage. I showed up in my black & whites (waiter/barista uniform) and got the job. So show up to any interview dressed in their uniform as if your ready to go to work.
Also Skyler, I couldn't find anyone that wanted to hire me as barista so I started a coffee blog to gain some credibility & get some exposure in my local coffee community. This gave me an excuse and a reason to visit my local coffee shops, meet the shop owners & baristas and get an idea of where I might be a good fit. Now I'm working as a barista again. I'll attach my resume so you can get an idea & a link to my coffee blog for you to check out. Best wishes with the job hunt Skyler! www.4loveofcoffee.com
