Most Cold Stone stores are owned and operated by independent franchisee operators. These franchisees, who want to be in business for themselves but not by themselves, are independent employers which means they exclusively: (i) recruit, hire, train, and manage their own employees, (ii) set their own employment policies and procedures, and (iii) handle all matters of employment at their store. Franchisor does not control employment matters and does not employ those working at franchised restaurants.
You can apply for a job at a local store by following these steps:

- Choose the state in which you’re seeking employment.
- Choose the city in which you’re seeking employment.

The ‘Entertainment Factor’ is meant to create a fun, festive atmosphere in Cold Stone Creamery stores and to set us apart from the competition. Crew members usually perform in stores, and ‘auditions’ may take place in addition to the interview process. That way, it’s known that entertaining is a brand standard. In fact, many Cold Stone Creamery crew members enjoy the singing so much they create their own songs!
