On May 2nd, after all Tampa (and the rest of the nation’s) Bars and restaurants had been shut down completely I decided to check the current job openings advertisements online.
Corporate bars and restaurants have always been (since before the internet) NOTORIOUS for posting time and resource wasting false recruitment job advertisements for nonexistent job openings.
I’m glad I checked to confirm that these jobs are indeed fake. Bartenders: take a good look. Don’t waste your time with these deceptive companies. Particularly with the ones where you see “new listing”.
