Crew Member Review

I cover many stations at work, such as taking orders from customers at the front of the store and in the drive through. I also work in Bev cell taking orders from customers and making drinks for deliveries, in store, and drive through. I also bag up food for deliveries.

I have learnt and developed many new skills whilst working at McDonalds. I have developed my communication skills whilst at McDonald’s and I have also greatly developed my skills in working in a team of many different people. Finally I have also developed my skills in time management and swift service.

I really enjoy my apprenticeship programme as it aids me in further developing my skills. I enjoy being able to do my online working from home. I have meeting with my coach every month along with going to the work offices in Rotherham. I am very eager to continue my apprenticeship.

The programme that I’m on is very well structured so that there is a lot of support around my apprenticeship role. There are lots of people I can speak to about my apprenticeship and ask for help. My programme has work for me to do that helps improve my skills.

My employer is able to support me as I go to the offices to do work every few weeks. I am able do do my apprenticeship work in a quiet place and am allocated time to do it in. I am able to ask questions about my apprenticeship to my employer.

My training provider has provided a learning coach to aid me in completing my apprenticeship to its fullest extent. My training provider has tasks to complete each month that help me learn more about my workplace and apprenticeship. I will be having tests on what I have learnt so far before my end point assessment.

I feel that it helps me build on skills that I had from being in the workplace. It teaches about proper conduct and how to act in the workplace which leads to better performance in the workplace. The qualification in Food and beverage helps in the workplace because that is what McDonald’s sell.

At work there is the McOlympics which I think is every year when people from all different McDonald’s in ex animo compete in games in the summer. It was held last year at the Rotherham titans rugby club. Ex animo foods is also a sponsor of the Rotherham titans rugby club.

Yes

I would recommend McDonald’s to a friend as it helps with building social skills and teamwork among lots of people. It helps build lots of other skills in communication and confidence building. It is a fun working environment as I have lots of friends who work there which make the job easier.

I would want people to not worry about starting at McDonald’s because all the stations are really easy to pick up and learn properly. After you complete your training shifts you will be ready to work on your own on any station that you have been trained to work in.
