UK NI

If you’ve ever wanted to learn about the top skills you need for any career, or to find out more about what’s involved in the world of work, now’s your chance.

McDonald’s offers this totally free resource to help you feel job-ready and career-confident, giving you a greater understanding of the skills you need when getting into work, and helping you identify the skills you’ve already got.

How Does It Work?

Videos and eye-opening activities put you in the picture so you can imagine what YOU would do in work scenarios, as well as reflecting on where your strengths lie and areas where you could improve. Helpful interview tips are also provided, as well as further information about the amazing roles at McDonald’s!

This module is part of the Youth Employment UK work experience programme, but you can do it as a standalone experience. It takes a minute to get started and about an hour to complete. And that hour could help you to feel more work-confident than ever before. Get started today!

James Thorne, Vice President People, McDonald’s UK & Ireland said:

“We are delighted to be partnering with Youth Employment UK to create this McDonald’s module as part of the Virtual Work Experience Programme. This past year has been unbelievably difficult for young people looking to gain experience in the world of work and this project really gives them an insight into what to expect from a job at McDonald’s.

We’re proud to be a part of this opportunity to provide young people with the confidence to go out there and develop the career they have always dreamed of, regardless of the restrictions they find themselves under.”

Laura-Jane Rawlings, CEO, Youth Employment UK said:

“Understanding the exciting range of jobs on offer, the skills they need to succeed and gaining experience are vital to helping young people thrive as they navigate their next steps.

We are proud of the work we have done with McDonald’s in supporting more young people explore careers and experience work.”
