The Operations Management Trainee is a succession program to train to become a Route Manager. The process is understandably thorough as they need to find the right person who will stay and grow into the role long term. I had a four step process: 1. One way video interview. You log onto a website and are provided a question. You have unlimited time to prepare, and when ready, you record a video response. You can re-record your response an unlimited number of times. Excellent experience with this interview. Having a chance to reflect on your experience before you record provides you the chance to give a detailed and accurate recording. 2. Video interview with the hiring manager, approx 1 hr. Excellent time here as well with this step in the process. The technology to meet via video works great. 3. Personality test. Received a link to a website and completed a personality inventory. 4. In person interview. I had a crowd of three or four people asking questions. Many topics were regarding leadership (as this would grow into a leadership position), and also work style, work ethic, situational questions etc. Had fun with this step as well. I didn't receive an offer, but the experience was worth it. I'd go through it again if there was another similar position posted in the future.

I had to reach out to a recruiter on Linked In to get my resume looked at. Once I did, I was able to get a phone interview within 2 days. About a week later I got another call from a Senior Talent Advisor and she also went over a few details, preparation tips and scheduled my Face to Face interview with one of the hiring managers. The questions were very straight forward. Mostly behavioral and how I would respond in certain situations. Nothing was to hard, or caught me off guard. I was hoping for an interviewer that was a bit more personable, but he seemed like a very nice guy. Soft spoken and had a calm demeanor. Looking forward to the final answer next week. So far this has been a great experience.

2 phase interview. Phone interview and onsite interview. Easy questions just be willing to work hard. The hiring process is pretty straight forward similar to most companies. Very down to earth people, get used to garbage trucks.
