I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Cintas in Jan 2019
Interview
I was contacted via LinkedIn. the recruiter claimed this role was a “step up” from my current role. The recruiter called on time, which was refreshing. After a few minutes I realized this role was not a “step up” and the salary was well below what I currently make. I let him know I wasn’t interested. He was chill about it and said he was still
Impressed with my resume and said he’d email me his contact information and keep me in mind for future roles that closer what I’m looking for. I never received an email or follow up. I will never understand recruiters who don’t follow up. Candidates are held a level of responsibility during an interview process because they want a job, but a recruiter feels they have the power to just not follow thorough. It’s frustrating.
Recruiter handled the process the entire time we did not go forward though. I felt like the recruiter ghosted me after i followed all instructions. But I would answer if approached again.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cintas (Oregon City, OR) in Oct 2024
Interview
Sales Managers in this company drank too much Cintas kool-aid. They are just as bad as most companies who over hype potential earnings and career paths. It is a truly baffling experience especially for a tenured sales executive.
If you need a job in sales to build your resume/career, Cintas would be a great starting point. If you are a seasoned sales executive, Cintas is not the way to go.
A 4-step interview process for entry level sales? That seems to be a bit extreme but who am I to judge?
Cintas' interview process involves stages like online application, phone screening, in-person interviews, skill assessments, facility tours, final interviews, background checks, and job offers. Specific steps may vary depending on the role and location of the position.
