Interviewed Sep 2010 in Rochester, NY (took 4 days)
You will meet with the regional HR manager. If they approve you then you will meet with the area manager and a branch manager. If you receive a call for the final interview you basically have the job, but then meet with the group rental manager. Within a day the HR manager will call you and tell you if you have the job or not.

Interviewed May 2012 (took 3 weeks)
I started out by filling out an application online. The following week I was contacted by an HR recruiter and he conducted a 5 minute phone interview. During the phone interview, he set up the first 1:1 interview which would be with the HR recruiter. The first 1:1 interview went well and he gave me the contact information of the Area Manager and I contacted her to set up the next 1:1 interview the following week. The interview with the Area Manager went well (also included a branch observation) and she gave me the contact information for the Group Rental Manager. I contacted him immediately and set up the final interview with him a few days later which went great. A few days after the meeting with the Group Rental Manager I was contacted by the HR recruiter with a job offer.
All of the 1:1 interviews were very similar and consisted of behavioral type questions. They wanted to hear stories of specific examples from previous work experience where you dealt with tough customers, took on a leadership role, etc. Have these stories ready to go and practice them before the interview and you will be fine. They love candidates who are assertive, confident, and are able to function as leaders. Demonstrate these qualities in your "stories" and they will be impressed. Also do your homework on the company such as revenue, number of employees, career paths, etc. Tell them how great of a company you think Enterprise is as well.

Negotiation Details
As far as I know, there is no negotiation for the Management Trainee position. It is entry level and your pay for the first year is pretty much standard.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 1 week)
Applied online, was emailed back shortly to schedule a phone interview. Was told I passed phone interview directly following and scheduled 1:1 interview. Was asked most of the same questions throughout both interviews, they wanted SPECIFIC examples of every situation or question asked. Thought I did rather well on both parts. After a 2 week interview process I got a generic impersonal email saying I didn't get the job. Waste of time if you ask me.

Interviewed May 2012 in Austin, TX (took 2 weeks)
Got a response from online application within 10 hrs. Recruiter who had emailed me went on vacation for a week starting the next day, so was trying to schedule phone screening with other recruiter who wasn't very timely on returning calls. Finally had face to face interview set up and only took 15 minutes before I was asked for a second interview. Said to hear back to schedule within a few days. Few days later I got an auto generated email saying they were perusing other candidates. Replied back to email asking what changed her mind and was told I could call to get feedback at any time. A week of phone tag later, I gave up. Wouldn't have been a big deal if I wasn't told I made it to next round on the spot. Lack of proper communication looks bad on the company.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Baltimore, MD (took 4+ weeks)
I met company representativeson my college campus. After talking to them, I was contacted by HR and we set up a first interview via email.There were three interviews before the job offer. My research of the company and energy level helped me win the job. The first interview was with HR, second was with an area manager and third was with a group rental manager.

Interviewed Apr 2012 in Wichita, KS (took a day)
I was mainly asked about my education and sales/customer service experience. I believe I did not get called for another interview because I have little sales experience
