The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cintas in May 2008
Interview
Interviewed with 5 people, 3 other Service Manager, the GM, and the Group VP. All the VP did was talk about himself. One of the Service Managers told me that I'd be wining and dining customers, which was a lie. I barely had enough time to use the bathroom. They try to sell you more than you try to sell yourself.

Question 1
Describe a time when you you went out of your way to help someone else with something that wasn't your responsibilty?
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cintas (Fishersville, VA) in Jun 2010
Interview
2 Interviews-one by Human resource which was nothing more than a verification of resume.
Second interview by Service Manager from set of questions, should be easy to handle by anyone with previous manager experience. I did great, interviewer tried to set up 3rd interview with GM but he was busy. Never heard another thing from them until 3 weeks later, an E-Mail rejection letter ?
The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Cintas in Nov 2009
Interview
Very lengthy process. Was called by office manager for an informational interview. THe next week I interviewed with the GM of that location, basic behavioral questions. A few weeks later I interviewed with the other service manager at that location. Again, behavioral questions, day in the life, etc. Two weeks later I drove an hour away to interview with another GM for a different location. Finally, three weeks later I had to drive a few hours to interview with the VP and a GM from that town. All interviewers were very professional and easygoing, and each time I was contacted with feedback. After the interview with the VP, an offer was made the same day. It is a very LONG process, but from what I understand that's the policy company-wide. I'm glad the process is over and I look forward to joining the team at Cintas. I will say it is nice to talk to several people to get their view.
