most bar owners i know hire bartenders that have their own followings... meaning, I used to date several of them and as she went from bar to bar, I'd see the same people over and over again, because they liked to sit at her bar. She knew what they liked, would be ready to pour their regular drink by the time their ass hit the barstool.
It's a hard job. It's stressful, and while it looked cool in the movie Cocktail, it's not all that glamourous.
I know someone who did go to bartending school with "placement" but he didn't have the right look so he's never gotten a job.
