Crew Member: McDonalds
2010 - 2013
Responsible for giving customers a good quality and enjoyable experience at McDonalds and leaving them happy and wanting to return.
I gathered a lot of experience due to the vast variety of jobs at McDonalds, this included order taking face-to-face and over head-set, working within the kitchen, cleaning and maintaining a safe working area, a lot of customer service, dealing with complaints and difficult customers, trying to solve these problems so they do not need to be taken any further.
I was a very experienced member of staff meaning I was trusted to be in charge when managers could not be on the floor, I would sometimes have to run an area, meaning I had a lot of team work experience, but I also had to give orders out to other members of staff who were not as experienced. I also got given a chance from time to time to do SOC’s on people, which check their knowledge on important information e.g. cleanliness, service. This is something the employees may fail/pass, so it is important.
Working at McDonalds helped me develop my people skills this included being friendly, polite, chatty and to communicate effectively with my customers and the members of staff I worked with, it also included being able to take orders from managers.
