Chipotle Mexican Grill on Monday pledged to fill up to 4,000 entry-level jobs nationwide on its first-ever National Career Day, to be held next month.

The restaurant chain, which employs more than 60,000 people, said managers at each location will interview up to 60 applicants from 8 to 11 a.m. Sept. 9. Find a list of Chipotle locations at nationalcareerday.com.

Chipotle is also part of the Starbucks-led 100,000 Opportunities Initiative, a coalition of corporations seeking to make a dent in the dismal unemployment rate among U.S. youths.

Earlier this month, some 600 young adults were offered jobs at a career fair in Chicago. More than 30 companies, from Domino’s to Uniqlo to Hyatt, participated.
