I applied online. I interviewed at Republic Services (Plano, TX) in Oct 2016
Interview
It was a 3 step process, 1st interviewed with Operations Manager and Operations Supervisor if you make it to the next step you interview with General Manager and if you make it to the next interview you interview with the section managers if you make it to the last step you have a good chance of being hired.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Name an experience where you had to deal with an irate customer? what was the issue and how did you handle the situation?
Like a cog in the machine, robotic and fast. Recruiter reached out for phone screen but I felt like I was just 16th out of 33 that needed to be done that day. Not personable, spoke very fast and didn’t answer any of my questions rather just gave a left field response. Any indication leans toward this company being largely disconnected. No follow up email, and was ghosted.
I applied online. I interviewed at Republic Services (Mobile, AL) in Jan 2022
Interview
First did a very short phone interview. Then was scheduled for an in person interview with the Operations Manager. In the interview I was told that since I didn't have experience in the trash business that I would be looking at several more interviews. About a month later I received word that I was not selected for future interviews.

How many people have you supervised simultaneously at a given time?
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Republic Services (Florida City, FL) in Jan 2022
Interview
Multiple rounds of interviews with multiple people. When going through the process it looks like, Recruiter, Area Manager, Safety Manager, HR Manager, General Manager. Interview questions were all the same and seemed to be a repetitive process.
