Q&A With MERKLE INC Employees

No drug test. Background check.

Yes.

They have plenty of opportunities for advancement. They post them in the cafeteria and online, and it seems like within several months you do get pay raises.

Health and vacation.

Helping people

Commiseration in misery

You just have to keep trying. Do the application, take the test. If they don't call within a few days, call and check on the status of your application (sometimes they have times where they hire alot of people.) If that doesn't work, keep submitting applications and calling, or try going through a temp agency you know works with them. I got in by application and calling, my daughter got in because I found out what temp agency they used and she got right in. Good luck. It was a pretty nice place to work for.

Accept low pay

nicely challenged.

Not at all

Very supportive

3 to 4 weeks

If you choose to participate, they are fun.

Hard depending on your shift.

It was fine. Just my hours messed up my entire day.

Fast

The department I worked in was pretty secure other departments not so much.

You submit an application, they call you in for an interview and then let you know.

My hours were bad, so I really had no life before going to work or after.

Nice pay.

Nice. Friendly.

The basic ones. Tell me about yourself etc. The one that tripped me up was "Name a weakness of yours."

A team player, positive attitude and great attendance.

Very. I had a trainer for 2 weeks.

Great Customer Service Skills and hand/eye coordination.

I saw a whole department get laid off 2 weeks before Christmas. They came to work and then were let go, they were told they were eligible for re-hire once work picked up again.

You have plenty of opportunities to move up or around but only after you have been there awhile.

Helping people.

They have holiday meals - Thanksgiving and Christmas, etc and there are alot of theme days like race for the cure, biggest hat day, etc.

Not sure, but it is available after you have been there for a while.
