The restaurants of the world’s most recognized fast food chain, McDonald’s, are looking for new employees to fill a wide variety of vacancies, offering flexible hours and a free training program that includes the possibility of obtaining a college degree at no cost. The company, which has a presence throughout most of the United States, has announced the availability of almost 50,000 job offers, adapted to the different profiles that coexist in today’s society.

Some franchises are also offering recruitment bonuses of up to $1,000 for early morning shifts, an excellent opportunity for those looking for extra income.
The job outlook at McDonald’s restaurants in the United States is increasingly demanding
The company is currently in the process of expanding and renovating equipment, and as a result they are looking for staff in many states. Kansas, North Carolina, South Carolina and North Dakota are just a few examples of the areas with the highest demand for workers. This need arises in part because of the versatility of the business: the pace of work varies according to time zone, customer flow and the different types of shifts (morning, afternoon, night and weekends).
For McDonald’s, its workforce is key to guaranteeing quality of service, and that is why it is committed to the stable incorporation of new employees. This factor, together with the wide range of job opportunities with the possibility of internal promotion, makes these jobs stand out in the competitive US labor market.

For early morning or early opening shifts, certain franchises offer a salary supplement or additional bonus.
