Marc Rose and Med Abrous are the co-owners of The Spare Room, Winsome and Genghis Cohen in Los Angeles, CA. All three properties are unique in concept; each feature personal, unexpected details that make for a one-of-a-kind hospitality experience.
Most recently the two have branched out to operate all the food and beverage outlets at the Graduate Seattle and Graduate Nashville. The growing hospitality group is currently seeking a Head Bartender at La Dolce Vita -- its latest Los Angeles-based concept-- an upscale homage to the classic Italian-American restaurant.
Primary duties of the La Dolce Vita Head Bartender will include but are not limited to:
• Lead by example behind the bar during service with professionalism and hospitality
• Foster a positive, inclusive, and high-performance work environment

• Train, coach, and mentor bartenders and barbacks to build a strong, consistent team
• Assist in hiring, onboarding, and performance management of bar staff
• Maintain consistency in recipes, presentation, and service
• Collaborate with company leadership on seasonal menu updates and creative input
• Ensure proper prep, batching, and mise en place for efficient service
• Maintain a clean, organized, and fully stocked bar at all times
• Enforce sanitation, health, and safety standards to avoid risks (including pests and contamination)
• Manage inventory, ordering, and par levels in partnership with management
• Minimize waste and keep beverage cost in line with budget
• Ensure all equipment is functioning and coordinate repairs as needed
• Collaborate with management on scheduling, staffing needs, and performance feedback
• Participate in pre-shift meetings and ongoing training initiatives
• Provide documentation of recipes, specs, and standard operating procedures
• In collaboration with PR / Marketing for the restaurant, actively find ways to market our brand and program while also periodically representing the venues at trade events and through PR opportunities as they present themselves
• Must have Food Handler's Card and RBS Certification, or able to obtain within 2 weeks of hire.
Experience with Toast POS is a plus, but not required.
Fine-dining restaurant experience is also preferred.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports the median hourly wage for welders at $28.45 as of January 2026 with time-and-a-half overtime required after 40 hours under FLSA rules.

How many hours per week can welders legally work in the United States without overtime pay in 2026?
The U.S. Department of Labor sets the standard workweek at 40 hours with overtime at 1.5 times the regular rate required after that threshold in 2026.

Three years of documented experience is mandatory for structural welding roles under AWS D1.1 standards referenced by DOL. Certification in SMAW or GMAW processes must be completed before hire.
What documents are required to apply for welder positions through U.S. Department of Labor registered apprenticeships in 2026?
Applicants must submit Form ETA-671, high school transcripts, and proof of U.S. work authorization to DOL-registered programs by March 2026 deadlines. A valid driver's license and negative drug test results from a SAMHSA-certified lab are mandatory. Background checks via FBI fingerprinting are required for nuclear or pipeline welding tracks.
