Earlier this year McDonald’s conducted a study that found that 4 out of 5 of their former employees believe their experience working in-restaurant set them up for future success. The study consulted a number of Human Resources experts, current McDonald’s restaurant crew, parents of current crew and alumni to assess how successfully the fast-food chain is preparing its employees for their future careers. The research findings also showed 90% of respondents said that McDonald’s taught them both ‘soft’ (ie people) and technical skills that were valuable for their future and revealed that 80% of alumni think working at McDonald’s improved their chances of securing their next job.
