I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Uline (Naperville, IL) in Nov 2014
Interview
I had to complete the online application, the DISC profile, Meyers Briggs, and complete a memo writing sample prior to a phone interview. I asked if Relocation was available when I set up the phone interview and the person told me she didn't know but wanted me to interview anyway. I had to complete everything prior to the initial interview and had about 24 hours to complete. After the initial interview I was sent a request to disclose diversity etc., and then I received a rejection letter. It was a terrible experience.

Question 1
Asked me how I deal with it taking a long time to have decisions made.
This isn’t about the interview process. It’s about the job applications. I applied for roles at Uline where I met all the qualifications listed on the posting, yet I received a rejection email within a single day. I applied again after a couple of months and experienced the same immediate rejections repeatedly. It feels like candidate experience is not valued, and the postings may not reflect genuine hiring needs.
For my first interview in over 10 years, I think that it went smoothly. However, the interviewer kept looking to the side which made it distracting and it felt like he wasn't paying attention to my responses.
The interview lasted 30 minutes. Good questions asked. Clearly looking for someone who has experience in manufacturing, which I didn't have. Seems like a decent opportunity for growth for this person to get their new Columbus branch off the ground.
