I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at ALS Global (Reno, NV) in Jun 2022
Interview
There really wasn't an interview, they were so desperate for people that they showed me around and asked me when I can take my drug test. When I got in I realized why, because they're constantly bleeding people due to poor management and low pay.

Interview
Sat you down in a room and asked you serval questions. You needed to take your passport with you. You needed a proof of address from within that last 3 months before being given an interview.

I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ALS Global (Waterloo, ON) in Feb 2025
Interview
The interview was decent. The interviewer was polite and tried to answer all questions. He was upfront about the repetitive nature of the job and the different departments I was eligible for. The wage wasn't provided which is always a bit frustrating.
