Most McDonald's locations are run by individual franchisees, who hire — and offer perks —separately from the corporation. In Tennessee, owner-operators are hiring for 8,000 positions ahead of the summer, while franchisees in Texas are hoping to fill another 25,000.
Perks vary by operator and location. In Florida, one location was giving candidates $50 just to interview, while also offering signing bonuses and referral programs.
Another location in Fayetteville, North Carolina is reportedly offering a $500 signing bonus.
