Skills Development

So far I have learnt how to use punctuation and grammar by doing functional skills in English and I have been able to be left in charge of shifts which will help me in the future when I become manager to be able to run a good smooth shift and it allows me to get o know the staffs strengths and weaknesses so we don’t struggle in the busy periods

4/5
I receive a massive amount of support from my trainer if I need to I can just email or message him through the portal if I really need to I can zoom call him if I don’t understand something he helps simplify it so that I do understand it
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
I have been able to be left in charge of shifts which will help me in the future when I become manager to be able to run a good smooth shift and it allows me to get to know the staffs strengths and weaknesses so we don’t struggle in the busy periods
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
We have a football team we have Christmas parties, we have apprenticeship days and charity days we also get to have competitions on shift to see who can sell te most of a particular item that day ms you win that item as a prize at the end of your shift

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend McDonald's to a friend?
Yes
Why?
I think that McDonald’s is a brilliant company to work for they work around what hours you can do as they are very family oriented for instance I can only work certain days due to having a child and they work round that and they don’t penalise you for it
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to McDonald's?
Just be yourself and you can’t go wrong we are very equality and diversity oriented as a business we welcome everyone no matter your differences and it’s celebrated we are a close not family and you can make some life long friends along the career paths you choose
