Bar jobs are easy to get. Just keep applying and something will turn up. All managers really want is someone who is reliable, turns up on time and doesn't steal. Bars (especially night clubs) have a high staff turnover so people are always needed. When I needed a new job I would print out a CV on nice paper and walk round every bar in the city handing them in - that gives staff / management a first impression of you. Don't email or post. Be there and hand it over. Also, I found it much harder when applying for advertised jobs - more competition. The work itself is not complex but is very physical. Be prepared to work unsocial hours and get called in because someone else has has phoned in sick (it happens a lot!). Be aware you're going to have to diffuse arguments and stop fights at some point. Tips tend to be garbage in the UK unless you're waiting tables. Be careful of your alcohol consumption -- the industry breeds alcoholics.
