GPS Hospitality Growing In Spite of Covid-19 Crisis

Mega franchise operator GPS Hospitality has 475 restaurants and is looking to hire 1,500 new employees. In a time of furloughs, layoffs, and shutdowns, the Burger King, Popeyes, and Pizza Hut mega franchisee is looking to heat up business. The organization is searching for new full and part time team members to come aboard in the 13 states where it operates restaurants.

The company plans to safely and efficiently meet with potential candidates by having its hiring managers arrange video interviews. "Although the economy is not quite in recovery mode, we can see the importance of having our teams fully staffed, trained, and ready to serve our guests as the public becomes more and more confident in returning to our dining rooms," said GPS Hospitality President Michael Lippert. "Our management teams will be searching for motivated candidates who share our guest-forward values to help meet those increased needs."

"We've been working with our managers to expedite the hiring process with contactless methods to ensure the health and safety of everyone involved," said GPS' Vice President of Human Resources Vickie Volan. "Once hired, new employees will receive comprehensive training, including cleaning and sanitation procedures. Full time employees also have access to company-wide benefits such as paid vacation, bonus opportunities and additional rewards to showcase the importance of 'people' within GPS' core values."

GPS Hospitality operates restaurants in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Mississippi, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and West Virginia.
