They emailed me first so I could set up a phone interview at my most convenient time. He explained to me that they do a background check, if you have any items from them (RAC) you have to return them or pay the full amount due or you wont get hired, you do need a valid drivers licence, and you have to do deliveries depending on it, also you have to do "collections" when needed. they offered me 10.25.

I applied online and had to take a personality test and an intelligence test. Someone contacted me for an interview, but then I never heard back. I called to find out what was up and they just gave me the run-around. I think it was just that specific location that was uncommunicative though.

I had a really engaging conversation, full of attention. There were other things I wanted to convey, and they were on my mind. Even though I shared a lot, it still felt like there was more to say, and I kept talking about it.
