Quick and easy process. The entire interview took about 30 min. They provide uniform for ride along but they put you on the longest, heaviest route for the day that you are doing your ride along.
I went through a 4 step interview process including the ride along. I think it came down to the GM deciding it wasn't a good fit. Very top heavy management but very professional. Don't forget your suit.

Interview
6am ride-along with one of the drivers on the route, then you return to the office and speak with the entire gauntlet of hiring managers (roughly 5-6 interviews). Very thorough process.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Cintas (Stockton, CA) in Oct 2024
Interview
During the hiring process, the manager specifically told me he was hiring for a "bench role". Somebody who could fill in where needed at the company. The job title that was posted was a ghost position, and had no timetable of when it would actually be available.
