I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Rentokil Initial (London, England) in Oct 2020
Interview
After submitting my application, Scott the recruiter got back to me within a couple of days to screen me. This was a casual friendly chat which was an enjoyable experience. He told me there and then that I had gotten through to the next stage of the process! Afterwards I had an interview with my would be manager, again this was a friendly relaxed experience. Just like last time he told me there and then I had made it through to the final stage of the process (efficient!). For the last stage of the process I had to travel up to near London to shadow a technician on his job, this is very different and actually quite interesting! Afterwards I had to travel down to Brighton for the final interview. This was tougher and more formal. I got my job offer a few days after. Summing up the interview process in one word I have to say it is definitely EFFICIENT!
The interview process was efficient, well-structured, and clearly communicated from start to finish. Each stage was organised in a way that gave me enough time to prepare, which made the experience feel fair and manageable.
Claire and Rachel were both professional, supportive, and approachable throughout the process. They created a good environment during the interviews while maintaining a clear and structured format, which helps.

I was contacted by Christian and Claire. They told me what area the job was for. What I would be doing. Then an interview was arranged with two the managers, where the asked me the discuss what I did in my previous pest control job. I must say Christian and Claire were both great with aiding me when applying for this role. They made everything clear and easy to understand.
