      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Clean Harbors (Los Angeles, CA) in May 2020

      Interview

      Started with a phone interview a month after applying. Was later followed with a second phone interview with manager. Not overly difficult, still waiting for a follow up after that phone call.

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Clean Harbors (Syracuse, NY)

      Interview

      Interview was a bit less formal than I was anticipating. Good job at communicating what expectations should be for the role. The interview process was overall fairly straight forward and easy, no tricky questions, minimal concern over prior experience or know how.

      Question 1

      Are you okay with the idea of not being in a lab or office setting most of the time?

      'Field Chemist' Interview

      17 Dec 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Clackamas, OR
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Clean Harbors (Clackamas, OR) in Dec 2019

      Interview

      I only made it through a few minutes of the interviewer talking as fast as she could like it was a mix of speed dating and those loan terms you hear in radio ads. The ad they had posted was for an environmental hazmat chemist with the title of 'field chemist.' The pay is only $17-20 an hour, not the $34,000-$66,000 they claim. That wage is with overtime? They want a bachelors+ and CDL+hazmat. They claim to provide the schooling for the CDL and hazmat, but it looks to be like they were trying to combine a field hazmat inspector with a hazmat driver. I felt the whole thing was deceptive and I might have proceeded further if their job posting had at least been honest about what they were asking for.
