Overview
Supporting your overall wellbeing with counselling, mental health support, life management, medical guidance, and helpful resources. Olivia is our friendly virtual assistant, which means she's available to support you navigate through the application process 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Whether it's late at night or over the weekend, she's on hand to answer your questions, guide you through the application process, or help you find what you need. Olivia can verify your eligibility to work in the UK & Ireland and assist with recruitment steps, while final hiring decisions are made by human recruiters.
Olivia is designed to help streamline parts of the recruitment experience. She can answer common questions, guide candidates through application steps, arrange interviews and provide timely updates to help make the application process smoother to navigate. Before we can employ you, we are required to verify your eligibility to work in the UK & Ireland. Acceptable documents to evidence your right to work can be found here. You’ll need to provide original documents such as a valid passport or a valid UK/Ireland visa (with a college letter listing term dates, where applicable). Only original documents will be accepted.
The interview is an absolutely vital part of our hiring process. Without it, we wouldn’t get a proper picture of what kind of person you are, and whether you’d be a great fit at McDonald’s. The interview will normally involve questions around values and attitudes and will allow you to show us why you’re the right person for the job. We hire for qualities and potential, rather than just qualifications. We look for people who have the right attitudes and behaviours to deliver a great customer and colleague experience.
What prospects do I have working at McDonald’s? Our employees tend to stick around. It’s a fun, sociable and flexible place to work with opportunities to progress into roles with more responsibility. Many restaurant managers and franchisees started as crew members.
