Interviewed Nov 2010 in South Bend, IN (took 4+ weeks)
I received a phone call from a recruiter interested in my resume and she set up a phone interview for the following week. The phone interview was very sales driven and I was asked multiple questions about my sales experience. After that I was set up for a 1:1 interview with the recruiter. That interview dove into my resume a little more and was short and sweet. I was given a folder explaining the pay and benefits and was scheduled for an interview with the branch manager and area manager. I took a tour of the office and learned the processes and had a very short question and answer session. At the end of this, I was scheduled for an interview with the district manager which was a very tough interview where they lay it all out there on the line. You should answer these questions truthfully so you can be assured you will be as good as a fit for the company as they will be for you. The culture is very sales driven and wants you to be a competitive person.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in New York, NY (took 4+ weeks)
The Interview process started with a one on one interview an HR member she then says the want to set up an interview with a branch manager. I then went to the interview with the branch manager and hey show you around there store and you meet everyone and spend a good amount of time learning what there store does. The interview is with the District Manager and the branch manager. Well after this i got another call saying to go to another one of these interviews in another location. I went and did the same thing all over again and did very well both times the people liked me. Everyone was extremely professional up till this point. My final interview was back at there main HR office with with the hiring guy for the area some high up thing... I walk in and he starts spouting off inappropriate questions like. Well it shows you went to a privet school sounds expensive... WOuld your parents be ashamed if you where just a rental car manager... These questions continued and belittled me. I kept a smile on my face the whole time and answered the the questions the best i knew how... I was told i would hear back... though this interview was bad i though ok well the other guys have a say... Turns out i was wrong this guy gets the final say and it does not matter about what those under him say... Overall this guy turned me off from the company in general and i cant believe they would allow such inappropriate behavior.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Fort Myers, FL (took a day)
As soon as they received my resume, they contacted me and scheduled an interview for that same week.When I arrived and met my interviewer he handed my a clip board and I was asked to explain in writing why I wanted to work for Enterprise.
It seemed to me that the position was for a recent college graduate and not a seasoned sales professional. Although I graduated college 30 years ago, I was asked what clubs I belonged to in college. I found out the next day that I was not being considered for the job.

Interviewed Mar 2010 (took 2 weeks)
I applied through a school website, took the online test, was contacted a few weeks later by a recruiter to come in for a 1 on 1 interview. Questions were pretty standard: give me an example of a time you went above and beyond for a customer, why did you choose your major?, do you have leadership experience? why do you want to work for enterprise? have you applied with other companies?

Interviewed Mar 2010 (took 4 days)
Interview was first with the head recruiter from Connecticut and then on to the recruiter for the area you want to work in. The first interview consisted of basic questions while she jotted things down and asked several questions basically to see how one reacts under pressure and to see if you can deal with problems that arise.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Los Angeles, CA (took 5 days)
Interviewed on the phone 2 days after sending in an online application. Got a 1:1 interview with regional recruiter. Went 15 minutes early, the recruiter's assistant came out and gave me a video to watch, took another 10 minutes until the recruiter came out. First thought I had when I saw her - "she does not look happy." First question - why do you want to work here. Most of the questions are behavioral based. Tell me about yourself. Tell me about a time you went above and beyond a customer's expectations. What leadership roles have you had. Just be prepared and specific. Research the company. Seems like they prefer people with sales experience.Position is sales heavy and I don't think one necessarily needs a degree to succeed.
Didn't get a good vibe from anyone at the offices - seems like they all just started there and got stuck.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Bridgewater, MA (took 2 days)
First, phone interview which I think everyone makes it through and then the second is a one on one interview with the recruiter. As soon as I walked in I was greeted and then taken to a boardroom to watch a 20 minute video about how much all of these "employees" love their jobs renting cars and can make salaries upwards of six figures. It always makes me uneasy when a company has one of these because it just seems really corny and I feel like I'm sort of being brainwashed. Next we met and talked one on one in the recruiters office, she was really nice and asked me alot of run of the mill questions: "do you have leadership exeperience," "have you acted as a mentor to anyone before", "when was a time where you exhibited excellent customer service," etc, I don't feel that my answers were what she was ultimately looking for and although I thought the interview went well I was declined a second interview. I also made sure to ask her alot of tough questions because I had googled the company and found a website that basically is a message board full of current/past employees ranting about how horrible the company is. Either way I wasn't too crushed I didn't get the job, you could honestly make the similar salary working retail or at a bank, it's definitely not for me.

Interviewed Aug 2009 in Burbank, CA (took 2 days)
I applied online, and got a phone interview the next day. Not very exciting, the recruiter basically just verified the information and experience you have on the application. Then we scheduled another interview the very same week.
The recruiter showed me a video about the company and job description. Then it was an one on one interview that contained very typical questions. Very boring. But the recruiter took a lot of time to talk about the company.
