Can't get hired by McDonald's = Fail?

McDonald’s actually has a pretty impressive career path.

I was once in a McDonalds and saw a manager interviewing a candidate. He looked around 15 or 16. He went to the local Catholic school, had previous work experience, was groomed and dressed neatly for the interview and had good grades in school. He sounded like a sure thing there (it’s a busy place located just off a highway).

When you filled out the form, did you have a chance to talk to a manager or did you just drop it in a box? One thing that students have against them right now is that they have to go back to school in September. There are lots of older folks looking for work that can stay on past the start of the school year.
