HR Generalist

In our kitchens, we focus on fresh and simple ingredients.

And we always have.

Since the beginning, we’ve served chicken that is whole breast meat, with no added fillers or hormones, and we bread it by hand in our restaurants.

Produce is delivered fresh to our kitchens several times a week.

Salads are chopped and prepared fresh throughout the day.

Whole lemons are freshly squeezed in our restaurants and combined with pure cane sugar and water (yep, that’s all) to make Chick-fil-A Lemonade®.

It may not be the easy way, but it’s the only way we know.

The Human Resources Generalist is in charge of overseeing and maintaining State and Federal employment compliance for all employees.

An HR Generalist is expected to be a conceptual thinker with fantastic organizational and conflict management skills.

You will have excellent negotiation and problem solving skills with the ability to multitask and adapt in a fast-paced environment.

To ensure success, HR Generalists should exhibit strong decision-making skills with a deep understanding of employee relationships, staffing management and training.

Top candidates will be comfortable managing grey areas, effective at scheduling and methodical in the recruitment process.
