I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Public Storage in Jan 2017
Interview
The process took about 3 weeks. Started with a phone interview that went well and the the senior district manager seemed to like me and coached me for the next interview. Which was with 2 senior DM's that lasted 3 hours and they go all the way back to high school and want to know what your weakness and strengths from every job were. The next process was a fly out interview with the executive Vice President. Thought it went well but I got turned down after this interview. They told me that they would reimburse me for my expenses while out there as well and it's been 4 weeks and still haven't seen a check for my expenses!!!!

Question 1
List all your employees and rate A-C and what did you do to coach up your C players or how did you get rid of them?
The Interview was quick, but very intentional. He started off with stating what the salary was, and what it came with. He was very upfront and interested in my most previous role
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Public Storage (Roanoke, VA) in Apr 2026
Interview
Applied online. Had to do a virtual job tryout. Then recruiter contacted me to set up a time for an initial interview. Recruiter started out strong saying this would be straight to the point and quick. That this job doesnt exist and its a "just in case" role to put you in the pipeline. Told me what the compensation was and its a take it or leave it situation. Theres no negotiation. Recruiter asked if i had experience with direct reports. I told her yes and she asked how many. Then she asked how many i currently have in my current job. I have no direct reports in my current role so she ended the interview even tho i have had upwards of 100 direct reports before. She did not care about my past district manager experience, only current. Received rejection email two days later.
