Onboarding Path

What to expect

Your new hire orientation is held at our restaurant (Chick-fil-A Atlantic Ave.) and lasts one hour. The dress attire is professional casual. We’ll be taking headshot photos for use on our team wall during our orientation. All new hires receive compensation for the entire duration of their orientation and additional compensation for completing their at-home food safety training.

Ordering uniforms

After Orientation, your uniform will be ordered. We assign uniforms based on position in the restaurant and will order them for you prior to your start date. The only item we ask you to purchase on your own is your shoes.

Pants

Are your pants slightly too long? Hemming tape is a quick and inexpensive solution. You can even buy it at Walmart.

Belts

Footwear

All team members must wear black socks and black non-slip shoes on the job. You must wear non-slip shoes at all times in the restaurant, including on your first day of work. If you’d like to buy additional pairs of shoes, you can purchase them at Amazon, DSW, or Walmart. Shoes for Crews is another option to consider for slip-resistant shoes, and our orientation team can assist you with placing an order.
