Shifts: 6-10 hours
Pay: $18.00 - $21.00/hr (based on experience)About Hot Chi

Hot Chi brings one-of-a-kind Chicago fire and flavor to everything we do.

We're more than hot chicken-it's about culture, legacy, and Second City swagger. We take pride in our hometown, lead with soul, and have fun while we do it.

For us, it's all about ihsan-the practice of excellence and serving others well. Whether it's making viral videos or making someone's day with a free meal, we do it with intention.

We opened our first location in Chatham in 2020, inside the former Harold's #55. What started as a bold idea in the middle of a pandemic turned into lines around the block and a growing brand with multiple locations, collabs with Chicago artists, and the mission to put Chicago-style hot chicken on the map .

At Hot Chi, we live to serve. If you bring the hustle, the hospitality, and the good vibes, you'll fit right in.
