      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Republic Services (Fall River, MA) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      I had an interview with the top two guys at the Fall River location. The interview was easy enough, seemed like we had a real rapport. The second part of the interview was a job preview. I had to sign a waiver basically saying my family couldn't sue the company in the event that I died. The job preview was only supposed to be 2 or 3 hours. I had to arrive at the garage for 7am. A supervisor was supposed to make contact with the driver who was showing me the ropes and arrange a location to pick me up. No one contacted the driver I was riding with. I had initially been told the preview would only be 2 or 3 hours, I didn't get picked up until after 1pm.
