At Republic Services, we’re guided by five essential core values – to be Respectful, Responsible, Reliable, Resourceful, and Relentless in all we do, every day. Our highly passionate, professional team is reminded of these principles every time they see the five R’s joined together to form the Republic Services Star. It’s what makes us who we are, reminding us to keep our customers at the heart of it all.
Republic Services, Inc. was incorporated in 1996 with a “can do” spirit, driving its dramatic growth and acquisitions through the years, welcoming other organizations that share its values and fiduciary discipline. Today, Republic Services, Inc. is the second largest provider of services in the domestic non-hazardous solid waste industry, as measured by revenue as well as a Fortune 500 company, publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: RSG).
Through our subsidiaries, we provide non-hazardous solid waste and recycling services for commercial, industrial, municipal and residential customers. Our customers come first as we strive to safely and sustainably provide reliable service through 340 collection operations, 201 transfer stations, 193 active landfills, 67 recycling centers, 8 treatment, recovery and disposal facilities, 12 salt water disposal wells, and 69 landfill gas and renewable energy projects across 41 states and Puerto Rico.

Our 32,000 dedicated employees constantly stay connected with their local communities. While there are far too many local activities to name, we’re proud to see our charitable efforts focused where they’re most needed:
Whether we’re providing a meal to a family in need or making a child smile on Christmas morning, our employees are especially generous when it comes to opportunities to help children and families thrive. We conduct canned food drives across the nation at various times of year, donate to organizations like Goodwill, support holiday causes like Toys for Tots and Adopt-A-Family, and take part in community activities geared toward families.
Everyone wants to live in a clean, safe environment—and our employees are making that a reality in neighborhoods and wildlife areas alike. From adopting highways to community cleanups to efforts to increase recycling, we’re helping to make America even more beautiful.
By donating to Susan G. Komen to increase breast cancer awareness, Banner Children’s Hospital to fight kids’ cancer, and participating in local blood and food drives at various offices, our employees continue to show their generosity when it comes to helping to find a cure and drive awareness for many forms of disease, disability and poverty.
Through museum sponsorships, scholarships funds and recycling initiatives in K-12 schools and universities, we’re committed to providing funding for arts, science and education programs. In communities across the country, we support educational and developmental programs with organizations like the Boys & Girls Club, the YMCA, Boy Scouts of America and various arts and science museums.
We believe that empowered employees are the greatest indicator of our success. We provide ongoing job training, growth and development opportunities for our employees at every level. We’re invested in our employees and continue to look for meaningful ways to demonstrate our appreciation for the hard work and dedication they show each and every day they come to work.
An important part of protecting our Blue Planet is our people. Without their unwavering commitment to the planet and our customers, we wouldn’t be able to do all that we do every day. We’re focused on attracting and retaining talented professionals that are just as committed to the environment as our company and our customers and we motivate them through meaningful and rewarding careers.
We are actively and intentionally creating an environment in which all individuals are welcomed and valued.

Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Republic Services.
Interview
Non existent. I was called by one of their recruiters after applying online. I attempted to return his call several times - always got voice mail. Left dates and times that would work for a phone interview, yet was never called back. Some hiring process.
