Sonic

Offering a bit of nostalgia to every customer, Sonic is an American owned and operated, drive-in fast-food restaurant based in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Diners who visit a Sonic pull into the restaurant’s bay and place their order. Orders are then delivered by a carhop on roller skates. In addition to the fun delivery, every customer loves the restaurant’s expansive milkshake menu, cherry lime-aid drinks, hot dog value meal and other menu items.

A fast-paced, customer-centered work environment, Sonic is a great place to work for anyone searching for a stable, entry-level position. Sonic supports creativity and aims to hire those who have innovative ideas and are passionate about what they do.
