I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ESS (Crowley, TX) in Feb 2025
Interview
Interview process consisted of making sure that proper documents were submitted before being asked to complete onboarding tasks such as getting fingerprints taken as well as background checked. Also asked to submit tax documents and required to attend online orientation and training sessions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One of the things they asked was that you get fingerprints taken and background checked within a certain timeframe in order to be considered for the position.
No real process. You apply, you go to an onboarding meeting and pay for fingerprinting (which they claim to reimburse but won't actually), and if you don't have anything on your record, you get an offer.
This is based on my own personal experience. There wasn't a formal interview process. The only time I spoke to someone face-to-face was during a video onboarding meeting, which they scheduled via email after my application and background check were completed.
The interview process is done online. All paperwork needs to be uploaded. Once your references are complete and background check you have to wait for an acceptance email. Then you’re good to go.
