Answer 1

i work at MCDONALD'S also.on the orientation,when you are working with the drive-thru,they tell you what to say on it and you gotta practice saying it.it should say something like
"Welcome To McDonald's,Can I Take Your Order?"
Then after he/she is done ordering,you confirm it.you should go like,"So That's a Medium Big MAC w/cheese,with Medium Fries and a Drink?".and they say yes then you tell them there total.Then,they drive up to the pick-up window,give you the ca$H,give them there change,the food then
say "Have a Nice Day!" or Have a Good Evening!".
At the register,where errbody waits in line,
you say,"What Can I Get For You Today?" and repeat what you did at the drive through.then say "For Here or To Go?"ETC.now in the kitchen,you read the screen,take a pattie out of this little heating thing,take the buns out of the toasting machine,put the pattie on the bottom bun,put the cheese on the pattie,then the veggies,squirt ketchup,mustard maybe mayonaise on the top bun,after that,you know what to do.then individually wrap it which takes 5-10 seconds,then put it on this rack,and go over to the french fries and put them in the frypod.and for
customer satisfaction,you have to clean the BATHROOMS!after that wash your hands extra,squicky,clean.Then after that,they inspect your uniform.that is pretty much all.

I have been working at Mcdonalds just over 9 months now, orientation is simple the crew trainers just show you where everything is and might show you how to make fries and clean dining/patio. Many crew are around your age or well under 18, so you will make a few friends. you get trained with one or two other people, you usually become friends with these people. So i was crew for a few months then the store manager put my name down for create your taste. My brother and i did the CYT training at this other quieter store that is linked to ours. Earnt my c star and i am applying for crew trainer (a manager and crew mentioned it) so i thought why not. I am a little bit nervous about becoming a crew trainer because i feel like it may be a lot of work!

Answer 3

McDonalds is a great way to start. Most owners of McDonalds started out like you. Just be freindly, smile, apologize if you make a mistake and DON'T TALK TO FAST. If you are taking this much concern to be a good performer, I am sure you will pick up quickly (like in two - four weeks) and do just great!

Good luck!

Answer 4

Here's some life advice. In general we have a lost generation of people who don't know how to cook? McDonald's is just a part time job, but use it to learn ingredients, cooking on the grill, steaming fish, deep frying potato fries, and even cooking eggs. One thing nobody can take from you is your cooking skills. And trust me, you will never get knocked for knowing how to cook!
