Buffalo Biodiesel Interview Questions
& Process

A person from the call center called to schedule an appointment and mentioned they are hiring for multiple positions. It's a bit of a red flag when they tell you it's that type of environment and they are hiring for multiple roles, which makes it seem like they have trouble keeping employees.

Showed up for the interview dressed well. A woman in casual clothes had me go to a bathroom for a urine drug test, which I suspected might be illegal as it wasn't at a proper facility. After that, I completed two aptitude tests. Later, I met with the owner, who was dressed casually. There were six roles available, and it seemed like many people applied. I didn't get an offer, and it seems like no one did, as the job posting is back online. I'm glad I didn't get the job, given the reviews about the owner's behavior.

So I had an interview scheduled for 10am, but when I got there, they had me fill out like a 5 page paper and give them my SSN and driver's license info before anything else. Then around 1030, a woman came and took me to the bathroom for a drug test. I questioned why I was doing this before an offer, but she said it was part of the process. After that, I went back to the waiting room. About 15 minutes later, I was directed to a computer for a 30-minute test. While waiting, I overheard another candidate who'd been there 3 hours and had to sign something saying they could fire him for anything, and that's when I decided to leave. The whole process felt like a bait-and-switch with no communication about what to expect.

The interview process was pretty straightforward. I scheduled a time to come in with the recruitment office. On the day of my interview, I went to the office where I was greeted by the recruitment team. I filled out a generic application and was also asked to complete some other company-specific material. Once the interviewer was ready, I spoke with them about my experience and the job itself. They offered me time to ask questions about the job and the company, all of which were answered satisfactorily.
