The interview process at Cintas is extremely exhausting (even existing employees agree during job shadow process). The process consisted of 6 different interviews totaling 5 days of time spent speaking with Cintas leadership. The reason that I specified the overall experience as negative is for the lack of interest in the position from interviewers and the attempted scare tactics that one of the managers I would report to, used during the conversation. 2/6 interviewers actually showed interest in being there and the balance of those showed little to no interest hosting. All employees spoke highly of the company culture and said it was unmatched, but it was evident (at least in this particular office) that there was a divide. One of the interviewers described having industry knowledge as a negative factor for this role. They suggested that they preferred a candidate that did not have previous knowledge on the industry that they would be promoting. This particular interviewer stated they had been with the company for 11 years and in their current for upwards of 3 years. During the interview, they did not ask any off script, "non-HR" questions and seemed frustrated when I prompted them with questions regarding the position. This particular interviewer also spent the first 15 minutes of the scheduled interview discussing the results of an NFL Game with the office secretary. I cannot speak for all offices within Cintas, however, I was not impressed by this particular team and the techniques they used. I declined the position based off the sole fact that I am a highly qualified candidate with a proven track record of measurable success and was not satisfied working for a company that was not as interested in its people as I am.

They have you due 5 interviews before making a decision. The first was with a Talent Acquisitions Specialist. Second was with an office manager. Third was with the General Manager. Fourth was with the Sales Director. Fifth is with a President of Sales Nationally.
