In its endeavour of driving change and making a positive impact in the local communities, McDonald’s India – North and East is planning to hire 50% of its workforce by 2025 i.e 1500 people through non-government organizations. For this, McDonald’s India – North and East has launched the community campaign ‘McDonald’s For Youth’ – that aims to meaningfully contribute towards India’s growth story by providing gainful employment prospects to the local communities, especially the less-privileged. So far, the brand has hired more than 500 young people over the last year, partnering with several reputed not-for-profit organizations such as Magic Bus, Tech Mahindra Foundation, Quess Corp Foundation, and Tarraqi, amongst others.

For most people hired through the ‘McDonald’s For Youth’ initiative, it is their first job and is an important milestone in their walk of life. Besides being their first source of income, these young minds benefit from McDonald’s global training curriculum through which they acquire the right skills and knowledge desired to succeed in their career path.
