REQUIREMENTS

“We should be about more than just selling chicken. We should be a part of our customers' lives and the communities in which we serve.”

S. Truett Cathy, Founder 1921—2014

Chick-fil-A I-10 & Carrollton exists to provide crave-able food and remarkable service for our guests, develop leaders who are propelled to a brighter future, and care for "The City that care forgot."

While we are in the chicken business we are also in the people business. We believe that if people have an opportunity to develop in a positive environment, they are more likely to prosper in life. We are committed to growing and stretching your leadership skills, providing you with meaningful work, and helping you be a part of a fun, family environment.

We are set to open in Mid-City at the corner of Tulane and S. Carrollton at I-10 this December. This location will be a "drive-thru only" concept with a walk-up window and outdoor patio dining focused on speed of service.

We are hiring both full-time and part-time, adults and high school students, those with many years of experience, and those seeking their first job. We are aiming at hiring 90 people from entry-level to director level. We provide well-defined opportunities to advance within our restaurant. This is a very fast-growing company both within New Orleans and beyond.

Expectations for all Leads

Our leads are humble. They lack excessive ego or concerns about status. They are quick to point out the contributions of others and slow to seek attention for themself. They share credit, emphasize team over self and define success collectively rather than individually.

Our leads are hungry. They are always looking for more: more things to do, more to learn, and more responsibility to take on. They never have to be pushed to work harder because they are self-motivated and diligent. They are constantly thinking about the next step and the next opportunity.

Our leads are smart. They have common sense about people. Smart people tend to know what is happening in a group situation and how to deal with others in the most effective way. They have good judgment and intuition around the subtleties of group dynamics and the impact of their words and actions.
