McDonald's

McDonald's Canada has acknowledged that hackers have taken approximately 95,000 job seekers' personal information from its hiring website.

The names, addresses, emails, phone numbers, employment histories, and other personal information of job hopefuls were exposed in a data breach; the corporation has opened an inquiry into this incident.

Approximately 95,000 restaurant job applicants' personal information has been leaked as a result. Those who applied online for a job at a McDonald's Canada restaurant are the ones who are affected.

Thankfully, McDonald's Canada does not request sensitive data like social security numbers, health information, or financial information, so the recruitment website has been shut down.
