They look at the drinks you make per shift, your espresso and milk skills, latte art and the cafe numbers you helped lift, such as average ticket and customer rating. In Dubai's specialty coffee scene, an SCA barista certificate, a food safety certificate and clear English count, so list each one with its level.

How to write a barista CV

1. Put your volume in the first bullet, for example '180 drinks a shift at peak, holding a 4-minute queue target at weekends'.
2. Name the skills coffee shops test, such as dialling in an espresso grinder, milk texturing, latte art in three patterns and V60 or batch brew.
3. Show business results, such as 'raised average ticket from AED 38 to AED 44 by suggesting a pastry' or 'cut milk waste by 18%'.
4. List your coffee training with its level, for example SCA Barista Skills Foundation, and name the machines you know, like La Marzocco or Victoria Arduino.
