- 16. I am a teacher looking for examples of the recruitment documents McDonalds uses to employ its employees. Aware of the online assessment, is there a paper copy available for my students to complete their coursework. Thank you for your assistance.
-
Thanks for your question. Our recruitment system is completed fully online, and I'm sure you can appreciate that we do not make copies of our assessment readily available to non-candidates. However under the 'Schools & Students' section on mcdonalds.co.uk you can find information packs that will be helpful for your students. (November 2011)

-
Thanks for your question. A good positive attitude is one of the important things needed when working at McDonald’s. Good customer service skills are integral to the way we do things at McDonald's. A crew member will be expected to provide customers with a quick and accurate service and show sensitivity to their individual needs, both from behind the till as well as in the dining areas. We like happy customers and we aim to make their experience at our restaurants as enjoyable as possible. (October 2010)

What are these? Delicious Digg Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon - 21. i am muslim and i eat halal food. my question is about fish o fillet burger.that fish cook in separete oil or cook with other food use oil.and i also want to know that how u filter the oil specialy fish cook oil.please answer my question.somebody told me that all mcdonald food cook together.specailly fish
-
Thanks for your question. None of our food is certified as Halal. Our Filet-o-Fish patty is cooked separately from meat items in 100% vegetable oil. However, due to the design of the oil filtration system there is a small chance that tiny traces of the vegetable oil used to fry chicken products can come into contact with oil used to cook the fish products, during the oil filtering process. The vats are filtered manually using a strict order of rotation to minimise any chance that oil residues from the previous filtering could get into the vat used for the fish products. Therefore while every precaution is taken in order to prevent this during the filtering process, we cannot categorically state that this would never occur. (October 2011)

-
Thanks for your question. Our lettuce is predominantly sourced from the UK in the spring and summer months, and Spain in the autumn and winter months. However, there is also a small percentage from Holland and France. Our regular buns are baked by one of our bakery product suppliers in Heywood near Manchester or Banbury, Oxfordshire.
