Is the Chick-fil-A Leadership Development Program for me?

The program provides great leadership experience, but it’s not for everyone. Take a moment to ask yourself the following questions before applying:

  • Are you prepared to spend time learning new skills while teaching others and sharing your own leadership perspective?
  • Can you travel on the road (within the continental United States and possibly Canada and/or Puerto Rico) for 24 to 36 months?

If you answered “yes” to these questions

Continue exploring this site, attend a webinar or apply now. 
If you answered “yes” to these questions, and you currently work for a Chick-fil-A, please use the internal application.

Even if you answered “no” to these questions, there are other great options like applying to become a franchisee Owner-Operator or exploring other career opportunities at Chick-fil-A® restaurants or with Chick-fil-A, Inc.
