It went well for me, I just wish I could get a call back. I will work so hard at all my tasks and do all what is asked of me in a day of work and everyday of my time with the company.

I went through 3 interviews total. First up was a chat with a 3rd party recruiter, which I felt went great. Then, I interviewed with the VP out in New York. The last one was with the regional manager based in Ohio. I thought I nailed all three, and the recruiter was super positive I'd get an offer, but then... nothing. No call, no offer, no reply back from the recruiter at all. Super weird.

It was a pretty chill interview. They mostly went over my resume and asked about specific things I've done, my transferable skills, and knowledge about safety in the industry. I had two interviews total: one was online via Teams with a VP, and the other was in person with both the branch manager and the regional manager.

The hiring process was really disorganized. I spoke with one manager who acknowledged my salary expectations, stating it was the offered amount but encouraged me to negotiate higher with the next interviewer due to staff shortages. However, the second manager offered me 25k less than the initial base salary discussed. Initially interviewing for one location, I was then told I might be moved to another branch after just a month, which is problematic given the significant commute (2 hours). It's clear there's a lack of coordination between the managers regarding the interview and offer stages. This disarray likely contributes to their difficulty in hiring, as they seem to be misleading candidates.
