ADP has a legacy as company, but their interview processes is too scripted, eye washer, peers interviewing who are new to the role. Have you really got good talent with this model or have you just got YES Boss! employees.
- a) Scripted b) lack of clarity on questions during multiple handoff rounds or panel interviews c) they want peers to interview and give decision making power ? really? Do you think this is D&I ? Please get an expert opinion on this strategy. Fundamentally one of the peer means someone at equi-par or lower level can pose question and analyze a response. They at Director level are those promoted an year ago or have the least amount of Leadership experience, yet. They feel a threat when an outsider comes with higher degree of knowledge, has better skills and can quickly be in a dominant position. Have you really thought through your interview strategy ADP? Your questions are so scripted that it is all on the internet. What Leadership Style do you carry? Which era are we in? Have you heard from any one that I am an Authoritarian? Dont you think you need to be one when dealing with bad people or especially in downsizing? Are you playing double standards here?

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Portland, OR
I applied online. I interviewed at ADP (Portland, OR) in May 2023
I filled out an app on LinkedIn and I was called that same day by a recruiter out of the area she normally covers. Then I went to a contract recruiter that scheduled me time to meet with the manager. That interview was very down to earth over their private video conference system. Personality questions. The next round was a role play that the territory manager was video conferencing into and I met in person with the manager. You should brush up on The Challenger Sale and asking deeper questions. It’s not just about knowing what is Paycom but being able to show you can build rapport with the C suite individual. I don’t think I did that well on this. The manager and new recruiter (so I changed recruiters 3 times) but the first one kept texting me the whole way, was on vacation for a week. So I never heard back from them and told them that I accepted an offer at another company. The interview experience was good because I got great feedback. But ultimately if a job offer was going to be made, I likely would’ve turned it town because I’m looking for something different when it comes to the management team that’s closer to a Simon Sinek leadership style.
