    I have an interview with PBV on Wednesday. Anyone familiar with the hiring process or interview questions?

    I've read somewhere that they may have you do an agility teat and/or setup a diaplay...

    Thank you for your time.

    They'll make you do like some crazy fast exercise to simulate the job like building a display of two liters and stacking some cases.

    Former Delivery Supervisor from PepsiCo (PBV likely follows the same hiring process)

    You'll take a 2 wheeler and unload specific qtys and flavors of cases of 2 Liters from a pallet that has 4 layers of 2 liters (32cs total on the pallet).
    You'll "deliver" them to a certain designated spot and check in with the "customer"
    After the "customer" oks what you've delivered, you'll fill a 2 liter shelving rack with the 2 liters according to a diagram.

    The hiring manager will be observing you to make sure you bend at the knees, turn your body with your legs and not your torso as well as how well you follow the "customer"'s instructions to the rack being filled. You'll have 15 minutes to complete the exercise, if you fill less than 60 bottles to the rack in those 15 minutes, you will not be eligible to proceed to the interview.

    American truckers.. Its drop and hook work, Wednesday to Sunday, 6am to finish.. Monday and tuesday off. I like Pepsi because of the weekends off and a earlier start but i figured since the holidays are around now it would take longer lol ill just keep waiting to see what happens.
