McDonald’s is so desperate for workers it is giving away iPhones

(ETH) – A McDonald’s restaurant in Illinois is now offering iPhones in a desperate attempt to attract new workers. A viral tweet shows the red and yellow poster outside the store.

“McDonald’s Now Hiring,” the sign reads. “Free iPhone.”  The sign did not forget to include fine print that says: “After 6 months employment & meet employment criteria.”

The sign is at a McDonald’s in Altamont, Illinois. The global fast-food chain is competing with other restaurants that are hiring nationwide.  Another McDonald’s in Florida offered $50 to people just to show up for a job interview. MORE
