Easy Interview – Overall Negative Experience – No – Thu, 29 Oct 2015
Interviewed Oct 2015 in Gurnee, IL(took 28 days)
After 3 interviews, spanning 4 weeks long, and 6 different exams my application was denied. All I can say is, what a waste of my time.
Uline tries to segment each individual candidate using a concentrated refining process of multiple interviews and assessments. I understand the need for internal controls but this process is lengthy and ambiguous---making it costly and ineffective.
For the most part all the interviews were behavioral- Don't expect much of a technical evaluation, because none of the hiring management have any idea of how to conduct an actual interview.
Once you get passed the recruiter and move on to interviewing with managers who describe a heavily monitored work environment, (which they can't stand) due to the private ownership (Uline family) consisting of conservative republicans who are trying to ethnically cleanse their offices by, hiring the same Anglo Saxon individuals--- lacking any noticeable diversity.
My last interview consisted of a warning about what ownership would be looking to micro manage, including but not limited to:
1. Number of Items you can have on your desk
2. No eating at your desk
3. Clocking in with Id
4. Monitors who walk around the office, whose sole job is to find employees breaking rules like the ones listed above
Essentially, the Uline family is trying to replicate the efficiency of German production, but constantly interfering with shape and look of the work place from an aesthetic point of view. Instead, they could be upgrading their systems and adding great employees to their technical departments, which are understaffed.
Thank you, Uline for showing your true colors and exposing yourselves as, an in-equal opportunity employer.
Don't believe me? Go and check out their employees on Likedin they all look the same.
