Chipotle Wants To Hire You … And 3999 Other Workers September 9

“We thought by doing this hiring day, it would be a helpful way to get an influx in applicants at a time when we tend to see a downturn, but also then to talk about the nature of opportunity that we provide, which we’ve really always thought of as being one of the real hallmark of our people story at Chipotle”, says Arnold.

The restaurant is calling the September 9 event “National Career Day” and will open doors three hours early to take applicants.

Unlike most companies in the traditional fast food and fast casual industries, Chipotle offers all employees significant career advancement opportunities, as well as compensation and benefits above industry standard.

More than 95 percent of managers are promoted from within, the company said. The company also released a chart of its salaries and benefits of various positions within Chipotle, promising that the highest levels make six figures. It has expanded college-tuition reimbursement to all hourly workers, added paid sick days and increased the amount of paid vacation it offers. A recent employee survey indicated that Chipotle employees feel supported by the company and express satisfaction and pride in their roles.
