J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Uline (Brampton, ON) en févr. 2015
Entretien
Got a response the following week after my application online. There was no communication over the phone (email only) and was required to do several different items:
1) A generic personality test. They are obviously looking for a "specific" type of employee (more on that below). The test can be found on human metrics dot com (Jung Typology). 15 minutes of your time.
2) A test on sales concepts and terms. Now most likely 99% of all applicants will have no idea what the answers are. You are forced to do this sales test even if your position isn't remotely related to sales. Waste of complete time (but hey you'll learn 1 or 2 concepts about sales). Here's how you save time (they won't even mention this sales test in the interview): Google the answers. Save yourself the hour. 1 hour without solutions and less than 15 with the solutions.
3) Summarize a paragraph into key points. About 250 words in the paragraph - you can summarize it into 5-8 simple points. Not too difficult if you actually managed to pass high school English. About 10 - 15 minutes of your time.
Before you actually get a response, you must do the three items above. The day after, I got a response to come into the office for an interview.
They cramped all the people they interview into one room, from sales to warehousing to analyst and upper management positions (its awkward). From here, you are required to do two timed math tests:
1) Simple math (adding, multiplying etc.). You won't be able to finish it in time due to the sheer amount of questions.
2) Recognizing patterns. This is very possible to complete (I managed to finish). Here's great advice: if you get a pattern like 1 5 9 20 81 80 729 320 ___? Consider separating the first/third/fifth numbers from the second/fourth/sixth (the pattern is multiply by 9 and multiply by 4). Many of the questions are like this.
Now after these two very short tests (a few minutes only), they'll call you in one-by-one to have an interview with the interviewer (once again, awkward waiting time ...).
My interview wasn't too bad, I got interviewed by the person who was the previous analyst. Interview questions focused entirely on my resume and projects/ experience.

Went okay. 2 tests followed by interview with HR manager. 1 test was pattern recognition for a pattern and another was a series of saying if two numbers matched. Interview was focused on my resume and history and motivations. Was okay
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Walk me through your history, why do you want this job, what are your strengths
Need to complete some math questions: comparing numbers, finding patterns, and then the interview. They ask you about why Uline, if you are good with teamwork, if you like startup vs. big company, etc.
Pre-screen, asked about my current location and that the position requires i be in the city, province. Asked for details about listed experience in resume and technical skills etc. Adamant about living in area in order to move foward regardless if you are willing/planning to relocate
