I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cintas (Kansas City, MO) in Feb 2017
Interview
Long drawn out and a waste of time had to do ride along and take off work, they pay you 80 dollars and youre there almost 12 hours. oh and you dont get the 80 till the 25th of the nesxt month
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.

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.
