PepsiCo interview questions

The hiring process begin by taking a lengthy online assessment. Questions ranged from what type of employee would you be if hired, to integrity type questions as what you would do in unethical situations. Also you have to take a math test with fractions, basic math questions and figures. I was then contacted by a Driver manager. It was stressed that the hours would be long and tedious and there would be holiday work to which i indicated was no issue. i was then told i would have to do a voluntary route ride, to see if i wanted to still pursue. i did the route ride on a saturday got there at 5am and done at after 3 pm, Temperatures inside the truck, which was in horrible condition reached 104 degrees, no wiper blades,and a hole in exhaust pipe made it a very loud and uncomfortable ride but the driver was very helpful and answered all my questions. i still decided to pursue because the beginning and potential salary was very enticing. he showed me his commission statement in which he had made 1300 the previous week. i was still interested and called in for an interview that tuesday. met with 6 regional hiring managers who again asked questions about my current job and ethics questions. i felt i had a good interview but received a letter in the mail 3 days later saying they wanted someone with more route sales experience

Very unprofessional and a bigot. I have over 2 years experience merchandising, building displays and planograms, i know merchandising techniques, i can operate an electric and manual pallet jack. If i wasnt qualified i wouldnt have never received a phone interview stating I am a good candidate with experience. Phone interview lady told me the position pays $14.25hr part time and asked if i've worked 10-12hr shifts before. I replied yes, i used to work in a warehouse doing 12hr shift work. I was later appointed to an interview at Schriever, LA site. I arrived to the interview at 8:40 (interview was for 9). As soon as I walked in a caucasian lady looked at me with a snobby attitude and asked may i help you as she looked me up and down. I replied yes ma'am I am here for an interview at 9a, she asked me my name and said someone will be with me. The guy who interviewed me came into the lobby area where I was sitting and shook my fingers not my hand as if I was a disease or something. He mentioned the interview will take place upstairs and I followed. Once we got upstairs he looked at my attire up and down and smiled fakely. Right there he already judged me and made up his mind about me. (I wore a white button down ralph lauren shirt tucked in with pleated khaki slacks, a brown belt and brown casual boots, and yes i am a black educated female that dresses like a fellow, my hair was cut in a nice military cut and I was presentable for an interview. I am also overweight which doesnt determine whether if i can perform the job or not, i have over 2 yrs experience in the area of merchandising) He kept telling me even before we started the interview that this is a very very very very physical demanding job. I said I know I am aware sir and I believe I can do the job. He asked what do I know about merchandising and customer service. I told him my background as a merchandiser and as a shift manager for a retail store and more. Then he once again told me this is a very physical demanding job. I just smiled. He later talked about the route with 5 stores and approximately how many cases of water i would have to pick up and said this is a very very physical demanding job. He then asked me 3 scenerio questions which I answered perfectly and he responded good and i am knowledgable of this position. He stopped the interview and said again this is a very physical demanding job and asked if I had any questions. I told him no sir and thanked him for his time and I was looking for a career that I have experience in so I can stop hopping around job to job and provide for my family. He shook my hand with less force than the first handshake and said I could exit downstairs. I dont know if he was racist or if he never seen a female like me or the fact that I was overweight. He completely judged my appearance and not my credentials and college education. This was an unfair interview. I was beyond polite and courteous regardless of how uncomfortable he made me feel. Oh yea...and he mentioned that Frito Lays Merchandising maybe a better fit for me. And he also told me the pay for me would be $12 hr with 20-25hrs up to 8hr shifts 3 days a week. (Thats not what the phone interview lady told me) I play softball, bench press over 100lbs with ease but he dont know that. He judged me and didnt even give me a chance. I really wanted to work for PepsiCo. But not anymore. He was homophobic and uncomfortable with my presence which made me uncomfortable, but I have a real good poker face, i remained professional.
