Waste Management, WM hard to get into?

Any one know what's top pay and how long it takes to get there at Waste Management for a class A driver? I believe they pick up and drop off dumpsters. Seen job add they posted that didn't last long was wondering what it paid. This was in the Chicagoland area.

 

WM recently rejected me for a job they listed online which said no experience was necessary... because I lacked sufficient experience. I've decided not to apply again.

 

I just left my job at wm after 11years. Couldnt take the bs anymore.Had a friend who was wrote up for not wearing seat belt in parking lot. All they preach is productivity. Just before i left we had two supervisors leave. Go work in the oil patch

 

I've applied with them many times for a roll-off truck driver job. Today, I got a phone call from a recruiter. I was surprised I got the phone call. In the past, I would always get an automated email saying they've decided to pursue other candidates. Maybe now it's because I got about one year of driving experience. The recruiter basically tells you about the job and salary. He also asked me how I followed safety precautions at my last job and what makes me a good candidate for WM. One question he did ask me is if any of my previous jobs required physical labor. I said "No" without thinking. He told me he's gonna submit my answers to the hiring manager and if he's interested, I'll get some type of response. I'm worried that my "No" answer may ruin my chances of being considered.

 

probably not if the called they are interested and its not like your working in the oil field the most youll do is open bins and doors the dumpsters are kept and pre trip

 

Well no luck with WM. I got the email saying they've decided to pursue other candidates. People are right. They are so picky. LOL

 

Like I posted a long time ago. It's who you know with them. You need another driver referring you and then you are a shoe in. Relevant experience is a plus. Many times management will ask their drivers if they know someone and the referrals go to the top of the list.

The bad part of WM is they are time critical. They know exactly how long a run takes and they expect you back. Take an unscheduled 15 minute store break and you get .
