It was a really quick and easy interview process. They wanted to know about my driving experience and if I had any issues with smells. The people interviewing me were very nice. I had an in-person interview and am waiting to hear back. They called and said they liked me, discussed my potential start date and what I wanted for pay. I asked for a dollar more than they initially offered. They told me they would call back on Monday to let me know their final offer.

I had two interviews for the SDR role. The conversation went well, but after the second interview, I was ghosted. The interviewer asked about my sales background and my knowledge of waste management, mentioning that most hires are internal referrals with prior waste management experience.

Behavioral Presentation
So I had two phone screenings first, one with a recruiter and then with the manager. After that, I decided it wasn't really the right fit for me. The next step would've been an in-person interview where they wanted me to do a presentation on why I'd be a good fit. That sounded pretty cool, but the commute was just too much.
