Interviewed over phone with recruiter in early July 2018. Quickly interviewed in person a week later with the manager the following week. Then submitted five references and took assessment test. Interviewed in person with regional manager. Then interviewed over phone with regional manager and regional HR manager. Then interviewed over the phone with the director. I was told that I was one of two final candidates. Notified in late September 2018 that I was not selected.

This started as a 3 phone interview and 1 in-person interview the 4th interview was a 4 way phone call interview including me. The 3 day interview process was really good and swift and then the 4th interview was strange because the hiring team did not look at my 1 page resume at all and i heard the team asking for my resume as i joined the call to be emailed to them. first question to me was if i have hired anyone and i told them my manager and i do that and they asked if i have fired anyone and i told them no and they brought this question back 2 other times during the interview which put a bad taste in how the operational culture is at HD supply(i was confused if i was interviewing for a transportation role or ops manager role) . I told the interviewer that we have not fired anyone but had some truck drivers resigned but our drivers are culturally aligned and an asset. I spoke about a training i issued my drivers to improve the process and The interviewer used that against me and accused my drivers for stealing (i told them about our process and how it was just a variance and not stealing) and they asked why i did not write them up. this really bothered me because they were nit picking my interview and really showing some signs of bad cultural atmosphere at HD supply. I also told them of a whole territorial planning process which i implemented in less than 2 weeks and the interviewer was like that not hard and i called him out on that. I just got very uninterested after the third question and we ended up arguing through most of the questions which was very unnecessary and i realized the people interviewing either don’t know jack about transportation or they want the transportation assistant to wear the hat of an operations supervisor, manager and transportation at the same time for way less pay which will put you in a 15hr/day shift and alot of drama. I just clicked no offer because I just cant imagine working with this team.
