Very rigorous requiring several interviews and a ride day. Each interview is with a different executive leader in each department. Safety is key and a huge talking point in every interview. The ride day consists of riding with a route sales rep to understand what the employees do every day.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Yelloh in Aug 2021
Interview
Applied online for a Route Sales Supervisor and received a call from HR on a Friday at 5PM. The HR rep told me the position was about to be filled then asked if I was interested in a Route Sales Representative position. I said no but she insisted I learn more so I said ok and she let me know someone would call me Monday so I could "learn more" about the role. On Monday a new HR rep calls to interview me for the Route Sales Supervisor position which they told me Friday was essentially filled. He asked me a few questions and then he told me the Zone Manager would be reaching out to me. On Wednesday, a Route Sales Supervisor reaches out to set up an interview for an Area Manager role. I drove 2 hours for the interview and I thought it went well. They said the next step was to do a ride along with a Route Sales Representative which I didnt think made much sense and I was to call the Zone Manager Monday after I took the weekend to think about it. I called the Zone Manager Monday morning and he was confused because he thought I was interviewing for the Route Sales Representative. He said I would have to do 4 more interviews to get an offer. Everyone I talked to thought I was interviewing for a different position. They are SO disorganized - I told the Manager to forget it.

Interview
Long but the right process to find the right qualified employees. You can tell that they are out to find people who are looking to be there for the long run instead of just another job
