Food and Beverage Attendant
Air Combat Command · Department of the Air Force
This job in plain English
This is a flexible, part-time food and beverage job at the Fort Eustis Bowling Center on Joint Base Langley-Eustis in Fort Eustis, Virginia, for Air Combat Command. It is a Non-appropriated Fund (NAF) job, which means it is paid from base recreation funds rather than tax money, and it supports Morale, Welfare and Recreation activities. The schedule can include nights, weekends, holidays, and on-call work, and only a few positions are open.
Can you apply?
Yes, if you are a U.S. citizen: this job is open to everyone.
- Open to everyoneAny U.S. citizen or national can apply. Some jobs also accept non-citizens; the announcement says so.
The job is open to the public, but you must be a U.S. citizen, a U.S. national, or a person who owes allegiance to the U.S. Applicants are sorted by hiring preferences such as military spouse, veteran, and transition preferences.
What you would do
- Take payments, make change, and keep cash records
- Set up food counters and prepare coffee, tea, and drinks
- Serve food and beverages, take orders, and present bills
- Prepare fruits, vegetables, sandwiches, and box lunches
- Wash dishes and clean kitchen, dining, and storage areas

Do you qualify for NA-3?
With experience: The announcement lists paid or unpaid experience that qualifies you. It includes lifting up to 20 pounds, math skills for calculating bills and taking inventory, and skill in mixing and serving alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks. No specific grade-level match is stated.
With education: Education cannot replace experience for this job. Education from a foreign school can count only if you show proof it is equal to a U.S. education.
Licenses and certifications you need:
- Food Handlers certification, which you must complete within a set time after hire or assignment
How to apply well

- Resume that clearly shows your relevant experience
- Proof of any preference you claim, such as a DD-214 for veterans
- Transcripts, if you use education to show equivalence
- Proof that foreign education is equal to U.S. education, if claimed
- Cover letter, license, or professional certification, if relevant
How you will be rated: Your questionnaire, resume, and supporting documents are checked against the job qualifications. If your answers or experience appear inflated, you may lose consideration for the job.
Tips for this job:

- Include proof of your age and any hiring preference you claim
- Send transcripts and proof of equivalence if you rely on foreign education
