I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Athletic Training Solutions in Mar 2024
Interview
I interviewed with ATS back in 2024 when the company was at around 55-65 employees. I initially heard about ATS through a former college classmate who told me all about general ATS background and day to day with ATS. Given the referral I didn't necessarily have a screening call but instead I got connected with management to coordinate an interview call via MS Teams.
On the call there was a site lead, an area manager, and a director on the call. I would say the interview was more laid back rather than overly intimidating. The call started with introductions and then an open floor for any questions I had about the role, the company and the setting. Later the ATS staff asked me a few questions. It ended with speaking about start date availability, next steps in the interviewing/hiring process, and any other closing questions.

I applied online. I interviewed at Athletic Training Solutions in Jan 2026
Interview
I applied early January, received an initial phone screening 3 days later. The screening was okay, I felt it was way too conversational and lasted 1 hour (scheduled for 30 minutes), red flag immediately. From the conversation I learned more about the role, but I also felt like I was listening to someone ramble about the cons of the position and work environment. 3 days after my screening I had an interview that was more formal. I spoke about my work history and experience, it felt dry and knew it wasn't a good fit for me. Ultimately, I did not get the role and was followed up by the recruiter letting me know it went to someone who had direct experience in construction, which made sense.
