The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Sherwin-Williams
Interview
The HR woman who called me was so extremely rude I don’t understand how she even has a job. She made snide comments at things like my college major, even though that is completely irrelevant to my ability to perform well on the job. She also interrupted me multiple times, then seemed agitated when I lost my train of thought in the process. After 10 minutes, she abruptly ended everything and I was never more happy in my life to hang up a phone.
