Social Media Writer/Community Manager at R+L Carriers
No Offer – Interviewed in Wilmington, OH Apr 2013 – Reviewed Apr 23, 2013
Interview Details –
Initial application was made by resume via email. HR department followed up to schedule interview and requested completion of their online application.
The interview was casual and incorporated both a "get to know you time" and conversation centered on experiences and skills. It was refreshing to be interviewed in a non scripted conversation style with multiple leaders in the hiring department.
Interview Questions
- Most difficult? I was asked why I was a better candidate than the others being considered. This brings the answer to personality, as I imagine we were all well qualified for the position. I imagine this question and my answer was used to best identify the best fit for this small tight knit department. View Answer

Receptionist at R+L Carriers
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Buffalo, NY Feb 2013 – Reviewed Apr 3, 2013
Interview Details – Pretty easy to go through. I put in my application online and called the next day. I spoke with the terminal manager, who had me come in for an interview the next morning at 7am. Three days later I got a call stating that I had gotten the job and asking if I could start on Monday. The interview was very basic, just confirming what was already on my application, and discussing what the job would be like..
Interview Question – Honestly, there really wasn't one. Answer Question

Database Administrator at R+L Carriers
No Offer – Interviewed in Jan 2013 – Reviewed Mar 31, 2013
Interview Details – Initial 2 phone interviews with Hiring manager and Database manager went well. Third interview was with Tech officers. Was invited to a "WebEx" conference and logged into the session. No courtesy to start the video on their side. Answered some technical questions, then was asked how I knew what I knew. Tech Officers would not take experience (14+) years as an answer, and wanted me to cite specific sources. Tech officer became very argumentative, and I quickly lost interest in the position.
Interview Question – Nothing difficult, just unexpected argumentative and belittling comments. As any seasoned DBA will tell you, 99% of the answers are "it depends". Not good enough for them. Answer Question

Inside Sales at R+L Carriers
No Offer – Interviewed in Atlanta, GA – Reviewed Oct 14, 2012
Interview Details – Applied for this position in April 2012. Got a follow up email in June. Phone interview in July that went well. Got an interview in August. They said I was one of 4 final candidates and that I would hear back next week. I waited two weeks and followed up with a call. I was told that one of the candidates had a family emergency and could not interview for 2 to 4 weeks so they would not make a decision until October. Who the hell posts a job opening in April and still has it open in October. They as so full of crap.
