Education and Experience
Candidates for this position do not need prior experience as relevant training is provided on the job to learn employer-specific functions such as how to operate the register and to learn information about menu items. Sales experience is a plus. Customer service experience does help when greeting customers, answering potential inquiries, and handling complaints, though this is not required.
Work Environment
A fast-food cashier serves a large volume of people over every shift, which can be taxing. Standing for long periods of time while placing orders and fielding customer complaints is expected, which may contribute to back strain and foot problems. Because paper money is a large carrier of bacteria and germs, frequent hand sanitization is another expectation. The environment is warm, bustling, and potentially noisy. The environment of a fast-food restaurant is populated by hot cooking surfaces, food, and oil, which can lead to injury.
