Crew member Review

I work in the kitchen of mcdonalds, my usual work is assembling food, and cooking the meat and chicken.

I have improved my social skills since working at mcdonalds and starting my apprenticeship, it has put me in positions outside of my comfort zone because I can be quite shy around new people, however I am getting better with these uncomfortable situations.

I am not a massive fan of this programme, however that is because of a lack of involvement from my store, and not the lifetime team. I think apprenticeships are a great opportunity to improvr your skills and knowledge

I think that the apprenticeship programme is very well structured as there is specific dates that e learning needs to be completed by, and it is very clear about how and when you need everything to be done by

I do not recieve much support from my employer regarding the apprenticeship, which I believe to be why I am still doing the apprenticeship, as I've needed longer to get through all of the e learning in my own time.

My training provider helps me alot, especially my coach gemma, she's always happy to help me out and explain things to me if I email her with a question

I think this helps me perform better because I am more confident with the rules about contamination and allergies

As far as i am aware, there is a yearly skydive for charity which a select few people from UK mcdonalds stores get to participate in.

Yes

I think for young people mcdonalds is a brilliant first job as it teaches you to work with a team and in stressful situations

Push yourself to learn different stations, not only will this make you more knowledgeable and comfortable at work, it will make your shifts more enjoyable as you wont be doing the same thing every day
