Question 1
Cintas employs typical scenario-type questions for the role(s) in which you would obtain.
I applied online. I interviewed at Cintas (State College, PA) in Nov 2025
Interview
Had three rounds, first was a phone interview with a woman who seemed responsive and easy going. Next I interviewed on site. The man was very straightforward and atypical in the sense that he wanted real answers and not something made up and fake. He wanted to know a negative trait of mine without spinning it into a positive. He said if I don't have an answer to not make one up if it doesn't apply. It was unorthodox but a little refreshing I guess. Next interview was another service manager. They seemed to like me and they had me meet with one last man who I think was the GM. So they had three interviews and the fourth they rushed me into so I didn't have to come back for the fourth interview.
