I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Rentokil Initial (Bristol, England) in Apr 2019
Interview
I applied via the website, 3 days later I had a telephone call from Scott Coupland who screened me over the phone, discussing my experience and understanding.
2 days later, I received another call from Scott inviting me to a face to face interview which was held at the Bristol office. I met Corinne here for the interview and she asked me to write a short report based on the image I was presented with.
I was then interviewed by Corinne and the Local Operations Manager, this lasted about 45 minutes and was informative, I felt at ease and answered questions based around the job and previous experience.
1 week later, I was invited to a field day, this is for applicants to go out with a technician to see how Rentokil operate. Again, this was a great insight into the company. I then returned back to the office for a chat with Corinne and LOP.
1 day later, I was offered the job!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us an interview review. You clearly flew through the interview process and congratulations on starting with us. You have been very informative to others about our process and I thank you for this. Good luck with your next few weeks in the business!
