Interview Questions
Can I pass a drug screen and background check
I applied thru Indeed and sent over my resume. I recieved an email to set up a virtual phone interview. So I made sure my hair and my shirt looked nice. It was an easy interview, my interviewer was very nice and made me comfortable. She told me that she is going to recommend me for a follow up in person interview and that I would be hearing from them in a few days. The next day I recieved a phone call from Karen who was very nice and also made me feel comfortable. I saw her the following Monday. It was a fairly easy interview with her, asked all the right questions some questions were hard but understandable. I was then scheduled for a dexterity test a few days later, I passed that then I had to go get a drug test the same day. They will tell you that you must go directly there after leaving them then, come back with the paperwork that you had the test done. If you dont go the same day, you will not be hired. I figured that they do that so people can't clean up thier system. About two weeks is how long for drug test to come back, I had a promise of employment as long as I passed the drug tesr, criminal background and drivers license backgound. I didnt hear from them so I did a follow up phone call for the status and apparently the lab didnt notify them. So if you dont hear from them I would follow up. I recieved a phone call today that I was hired. Even tho our schools are closed due to Covid, they are setting up my training. I was hired at the Berlin NJ office
Where did i see myself in 5 years?
