Looking for employment? State College McDonald’s locations look to hire 150 new positions

As part of a new initiative, McDonald’s restaurants throughout State College are looking to hire at least 150 new employees immediately.

The quick-hire program launched Friday with all five local fast food restaurants hiring for full- and part-time employment.

“We are in a very difficult and uncertain time,” Joe Nyanko, owner and operator, said in a release. “The local economy has taken a major hit with the loss of many annual events and the university’s pause in operations. I am announcing this initiative to immediately provide work for those who need it most.”

As Centre County enters the “yellow” phase of the state’s reopening plan, Nyanko said his restaurants will be able to provide stable work and income for those most in need.

“We offer flexible scheduling, competitive pay, free employee meals and terrific scholarships for all employees who want to continue their education,” he said.

Applicants can apply by texting “APPLY” to #36453 or by visiting Mcdonald’s career website.
