Behavioral
The interview and hiring process is similar to that of a position that should pay at least 70k. It is a 3 person panel interview and the hoops that they expect you to jump through are ridiculous for less than $13 per hour. They only require a high school diploma in order to justify the low pay. But the required background check, knowledge, skills, testing, responsibilities and hazards of the job should render a minimum of 50k annually
