Re: How to answer why I want to work as a barista despite my obvious training for another field - June 8th 2015, 12:58 PM

Be honest and upfront. Tell them that you are looking to be a barista because you are looking for steady work while <<whatever>> happens. Also be clear that you won't just abandon this job, and that you will be a really good employee.

Or you leave qualifications off your resume, which is all about tailoring it to what you are applying for. Then though, be prepared for questions about what you were doing during those times.


Feel free to email/PM/VM/whatever me if you want. I'll answer as soon as I can.
