About the role

NBC’s “Chicago Fire” is casting an experienced male bartender in the Chicago area for scenes set inside Molly’s Bar. This paid, non-speaking background role requires real bartending experience and the ability to perform bar service actions on camera. Selected talent will work behind the bar, demonstrate familiar bartender movements, and handle standard bar tools confidently on set. This is a local hire for Chicago and surrounding areas.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
