Hopefully this helped some of you! If any of you work at Cane's too and want to leave tips/experiences in the comment section feel free :) Let's be friends Insta - @MarlenaLawless
Looking forward to looking here. What has me hooked is the communication and making sure everyone is on tracking, when everyone knows what’s going on the environment becomes less stressful.
i used to work at canes from 2018-2021 aaaaand i can say at first its fun especially w fun coworkers but they OVERWORK you and make you think its worth it. its lowkey cultish
I worked at Raising Cane's for 2 and a half years. Definitely a stressful job at times, but it can also be a fun place to work if your co-workers and manager are chill. They do tend to overwork you and will often make you clean everything in the store from top to bottom. Overall, get ready to work your ass off if you apply to Cane's.
I just got hired. What’s the training processes like? I’m going in for the direct deposit setup tomorrow and they’re opening a new location in early July. I have prior commitments the last 2 weeks of June. Would that be a problem?
@@fredy004 it went really well. I started at a newly built restaurant so everyone was learning at the same time by NROs. New restaurant openers. Are you a hire for an already established restaurant? I work in southern cali so labor laws I think are different here. Everyone went great on the first day and I still work there. I know a lot of people that want to quit at the end of the year but personally I like it. There are some stupid stuff but it’s a good job and most of the people I work with are nice. Good luck!! I’m sure you’re gonna crush it!! Tell me how it goes. 👍🏻👍🏻🥳
And if it's a slower day, then you could be sent home early. Because of labor costs & depending on how many people are there (crew and /or managers & customers). That can also be the case at other fast food places & restaurants as well (Jimmy John's, McDonald's, etc.) .
I worked there for almost a year and it was simple work. What you would expect but the reason I quit was because of drama and my managers didn’t check any crew and let too much bullshit happen 🤦♂️ the job itself is mad easy and i would’ve stayed longer but the environment was too toxic for me. the crew and management made me quit honestly
@@justviibing5025 nope, but don't show up on something bro... def not the environment for that; it's a lot more fast-paced than most fast food places (source: Cane's employee, worked at several other restaurants for 4 years)
I have an interview at my newly opened Canes. Just turned 17 and It would be my first ever job. The interview tips help so thanks. Hopefully I get hired!!
Lol, this would have been helpful. Just started myself and they threw me into the fire of the kitchen to begin with 😂. Yeah, those communications are what I am trying to really focus on hearing and saying to others on the line. Thanks for making this nonetheless.
Hi, quick question I just completed my background check at raising canes around my area. the question is do they send an email to you to know when’s is your job orientation or do you come in anytime for your job orientation ?
Thank you so much for this video… I’m freaking out a little bit tomorrow is my first day at canes I applied for cook but they just sent me my schedule and it looks like I’m going to be doing everything DT accuracy(can you explain that one pls 🙏🏼) than DT orders dinning room cashier…. Do they do that for you to get familiar with all the stations there than you get the station that you applied for or they constantly rotating you?
DT accuracy is basically putting the food into the bags in drive thru! and yes, you’ll be getting familiar with all positions and you’ll most likely be moving around each shift :) hope this helps!
I got hired during my interview. I've sent in a background check they're waiting to receive, and orientation will start after. Can I wear a raising canes hoodie as part of the uniform (like the one worn in the video) or are short sleeves required?
I just got hired and my orientation is tomorrow and im so excited and nervous! its my first job and this video really helped ease my nerves with what to expect! thank you
@@prettygirlsdohair It was good, since it was my first job I had nothing to expect, but it was super simple, my Orientation was just a bunch of videos to watch and things to sign, but my first day was eventful and had a lot of information but wasnt too hard, I was front counter helping clean the dining room and calling out orders, my canes is a really fun working environment and I had wonderful Certified trainers train me, I wish you the best of luck! My biggest tip is not to be timid and it never hurts to be loud
I’ve been at canes for a couple weeks and I feel like I’m in military training. I still don’t understand how they expect us to grab food straight out of the fryer. And they get mad when I don’t understand their special lingo like damn give me a chance.
@@austinb3560 bro I just recently got hired and their lingo is literally so dumb and extra 😐 I’m having the most problems with call outs because of all the silly a** names for everything
Thank u so much. I just got hired I've got my orientation this Sat. I'm Hella nervous and don't want to be hated lol for being slow in Kitchen 😁.But thank u for the wonderful knowledge.
No position is HARD I’d say, it can just be fast paced. I’d say being up front is a more chilled spot to be because your managers don’t have to worry as much about times like they do in drive
Easiest position I’ve been trained on is expo/DT expo. The “hardest@ was probably the chicken/bread, because you have to constantly drop chicken/ bread or you will be behind
Did the interview today and got hired. It’s kinda weird tho cuz the canes that I’m gonna be working at hasn’t even opened yet. So when I start I think everyone will be new. They even had us interview at a hotel because the restaurant is still being constructed.
i watched this video before i started working there, worked there for 9 months, just quit today. they overwork you a lot and they don’t really give you a lot of hours unless you do late night shifts. it’s fun working with your coworkers but the cons outweigh the pros. the one i worked at had a lot of favoritism, drama, and even sexual harassment. an actual manager got fired because he was literally sexually harassing minors. they’re also really all about numbers no matter what. the restaurant i worked at got Top Gold (one of the best restaurants) but 90% of the crew were unhappy and planning to leave. so that’s says everything about how things are run there. maybe that’s just the location i worked at. but from pov cane’s doesn’t really care about anything else but times, numbers, and beating their competition. don’t work here lmao
Mine as well. I hardly get hours above 25. As soon as I went to closing im getting good hours but my goodness is it a stressful job. I feel like people will say it’s really not but man-
It depends on if you're starting Front of House (FOH) or Back of House (BOH). FOH is supposed to start with dinning room and then expo but they can be together. From there you get two days as cashier before being moved to drive thru. The positions it drive thru get trained at different points and it depends on how the trainer prefers to train along with the volume of the restaurant (how busy they are). With BOH you get trained on toast first, two days on boards with one being for dine in and the other for drive thru. With Bird being two days and the last position. At some point in any of these you should be trained on prep and dishes. You only get trained on marinating the bird and making the batters when being trained in the kitchen though. If you work dinner shifts then it may be a while before you learn lemonade. Hope this helped =)
You get trained in every single position that the restaurant has to offer including the kitchen, drive-thru, and up top. After you complete training, you and a shift manager discuss what you feel most comfortable on but you can't always rely on getting that spot for every shift.
I just Had My Interview Yesterday, It was very Chill & I Felt Very Confident & They Said They’ll Let Me Know If I Got The Job Friday 🤞🏾😌 I’m Excited & Nervous
You technically should drop fries after you shake the bird, so that they come up around the same time. When you get rushes, do constant big drops, maybe 2 to 3. *Each* of these drops should be at least 30 tenders in each basket. Try to stay on 2 baskets for bird, so you don’t have to move as much to stop the timers. If you’re still not good with dropping bird (finger technique) don’t worry you’ll get the hang of it; keep your fingers straight and kinda pick at the tenders and grab the little ends between your fingers. Lay them flat in the fryer, it’s all about the flick of the wrist too. Usually it helps to have someone just do baskets and someone drop bird. For medium drops it should be constant drops of 15. Hope this helps ❤
What are “baskets” at raising canes. I’m only asking cause my first day is tomorrow and they put me on “baskets” but I forgot what that position is. Is that the “fries”
Baskets is basically just dropping fries and taking them out, you don’t drop the bird, but you take the bird out of the fryer, it’s really fun, but on rush hours, it can kinda get frustrating if bird isn’t dropping fast enough
Do they pay you every two weeks for the hours you worked for the two weeks after you start? I just got my first paycheck but I’m confused because I don’t they added my hours from the last week I worked.
I work at Cane's and at my location the weeks end on Tuesday night and you restart your hours on Wednesday they pay you on Tuesdays and it's not the next Tuesday but the Tuesday after you get your next paycheck. So every two weeks and it turns out that you're paychecks are from the weeks before not the ones you just worked like most restaurants.
I'm working there soon, the base pay is 15 I didn't know that and in the interview I said like 12 dollars 💀 and she said well 15 is the base pay. I start working there after orientation this week I'm excited but I felt so stupid 💀
@@MarlenaLawless yeah thats what they told me too but ive been late a lot more than 6 times and called out and im still working after 2+ years (pain) so idek LOL
I just started at a new location that opened a few weeks ago and the only times I've had breaks is when I told the managers I had to pick my wife up from work at a certain time. I got in trouble for having to leave the second time to pick her up. Mind you both shifts I took these "breaks" on where 10 hour shifts. Now I'm seeing my schedules only have 3 days a week on them as opposed to 5 days a week. So I figure I've been punished for needing to take a break them two times. I mentioned days ahead that I'd need to take a 15 to 20 min break to go pick her up so it wasn't just out of the blue. But, I am in texas and according to Google here in this state no breaks are required by law. So yea if ur in texas don't count on having any breaks.
14 something an hour?? Man my state sucks, here in louisiana they are starting me off at 10.75 and thats 50 cents higher than normal cause i used to work at mcdonalds and i made 10.50 there
I was in a group interview with them here in Tucson back in 2017. It was the stupidest experience I ever had. The manager greeted us in the dining room with the music blaring over the loudspeaker. All he did was ask us what our favorite music was and what we wanted to do on a vacation. A total waste of time. Nonetheless I never got the job or even bothered following up.
I’m waiting on my Sugar Daddy to provide me the $300.00 so I can start working. I have to order the Crocs, and Apple Watch so I don’t have my phone out all day. Plus I want to order through the Cane Geer Apparel.
