These roles range from entry-level to management positions.
In 2020, Subway closed a net of 1,557 restaurants, which is 10% of all its stores, due to the pandemic.
However, the chain is expecting business to return to pre-pandemic levels, just as several other restaurant chains in the US are.
Earlier this month, KFC and its franchisees unveiled plans to hire 20,000 permanent, full-time and part-time employees across the country to meet growing demand.
