Colloquio
I was initially contacted the week before Christmas by the recruitment specialist. She did a phone screening where she asked me a few questions based from my resume and then she proceeded to tell me a little bit about the company. After this, she told me that she would be getting back in contact with me once she found a store for me in my area to go visit.
I didn't hear back from her until after Christmas and I was then able to go on my store tour. The store tour is more of a way for you to get to know the type of company Sherwin Williams is and what a day in the life is like. You get to sit down with management and pretty much interview them with a print out that you have to take, full of questions to ask them and also you can ask your own questions.
After this you follow up with your recruiter and she will ask you a few questions about the store tour and she will follow up with the management team at the store to get their opinion about you and if its good you will move on to the final interview.
My final interview was January 6th, it is a professional interview so make sure you dress to impress. **Make sure you arrive pretty early too because they love that** The interview was more of a comfortable conversation of the DM trying to get to know men. Basic interview questions and an overall great experience.
I finally heard back from my recruiter the following Friday with an offer!! :)

Colloquio
Showed up 10 minutes before the interview time only to be told the manager I had my appointment with had gone out to lunch (10 AM). It was a training store so I imagine this manager has many people come through his store so after they told me to come back in an hour I simply went home and told the recruiter what happened. It was a huge red flag and I knew this was not the company for me.

The screening interview was situational, not bad at all, standard "do you have any work experience to link to this" kinds of questions. Second was an in-store walkthrough, the particular manager I got was a good guy and had very little issue describing exactly what the day-to-day around there was like, didn't try to "sell the corporate dream" like HR professionals will. Third interview (final) was where the problem lied. Hiring manager there gave off sociopathic vibes, and I was more or less given a standard interview, but either they had already made a decision on a prior interview or just really couldn't handle basic human interaction. Very impersonal and robotic from the moment I got past the receptionist. The main problem with their interview system is that the first two interviews really don't matter. The last one with the hiring manager holds all the weight, and they will string you along until this point. I heard this complaint around the internet while I was interviewing here, and I can confirm its authenticity. Overall, interview here if you like, but don't trust that positive vibes from the beginning will mean local corporate will care about your time invested in interviewing there. They can and will dismiss you in half an hour of interviewing after you've put in ~2 hours 15 in prior interviews, one requiring travel.
