This list, in no specific order, includes a few places around Delaware that would be great for students attending Hayes this year to work!

#10 – McDonald’s

McDonald’s has several locations in Delaware. The main two are the one on South Sandusky Street and the one on West Central Avenue. It can be a great place to start working throughout the school year especially if you’re looking for a first job to learn skills in the workplace.

#9 – Subway

Subway has four locations in Delaware which are all spread out so no matter where you are it would be a close workplace for you. It can be a great option to start working there throughout the school year. Especially with no job experience it could lead you to learn basic skills in the workplace.

#8 – Kroger

Kroger has two location on opposite sides of town, one being on Houk Road and the other on 23. Many students in the past have worked there or currently work there. A downside and upside to working at Kroger is that they have a union. A union means you have a bargaining unit to help improve fair wages and conditions for employees. Along with this it also means some of your paycheck goes to paying for this.

#7 – Taco Bell

Taco Bell has one location in Delaware and it is 2-3 minutes south of downtown. Taco Bell is another place/option for students to work at. It’s right near Chipotle and Walmart and can be a good location for people to get to and from work depending on where they live.

#6 – Wendy’s

#5 – The Strand

The Strand offers a whole different scene for a returning worker or even a person looking for a first  job.
