Application
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Ecolab (Worcester, MA) in Jun 2012
Interview
Posts on Ecolab.com/Careers or Careerbuilder, First is phone screening (Sales background, driver history - if you have a DUI or similar on your record even more than 15 years ago good luck, Technical ability) then the online assessment and after that it's a face to face with the District Manager (how's your selling ability, background, why Ecolab), then it's a face to face with the Area Manager for the same thing. If you're lucky like me they did the interview together as a group panel interview (shaves off a week) followed by an unpaid full day ride along (wear a collared button up shirt preferably white with navy dickies because the rep will bring you into accounts and have you help sometimes and you don't want to mess up your business clothes) then it's the drug/background/driving record tests and a few days or a week later it was the offer

Interview
Applied online, received a call from HR shortly after, took a competency test that had some percent change problems. I then did a ride along w/ someone in the roll and had an in person interview with 3 people that basically went over my resume. It was made known that sales are very important to the company.
