WOW… so I guess 75,000 people applied for the 2,000 available jobs in chicago > **[75,000 Applied for 2,000 Local McJobs](https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/75000-applied-for-2000-available-mcjobs/1907220/)** > > Restaurant managers say they plan to hire more in the future. > A McJob looked mighty appealing to tens of thousands of people in the Chicago area. > More than 75,000 job-seekers applied for 2,000 area positions with McDonald’s during the fast food king’s first-ever “National Hiring Day” on April 19. > Applicants packed franchises in Illinois, Southern Wisconsin and Northwest Indiana. McDonald’s filled all 2,000 jobs, including more than 1,000 posts in the Chicago area alone, a McDonald’s spokesperson said. > Oak Brook-based McDonald Corp. offered 50,000 positions nationwide as part of the April 19 job fair. > The openings were for full- and part-time restaurant crew and management positions, which translate to about three or four new hires per store. Applicants were asked to apply at franchises or online. > Job offers took a couple of weeks, administrators said, because of mandatory background checks. > Some called the large-scale hiring day a stunt to make hires McDonald’s would have made anyway, but the company said the 50,000 jobs represent an upswing in employment opportunities after turnover slowed in recent years. > Locals didn’t disagree. > For the 73,000 that didn’t land a new job with the company, the hiring isn’t over. > Restaurant managers expect to boost staffing in the future, the company said. > McDonald’s boasts about 1.7 million employees worldwide. The nationwide hiring spree is expected to increase its U.S. workforce by seven percent to 700,000.
