      Sales Executive Interview

      13 Aug 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Dallas, TX
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Paychex (Dallas, TX) in Aug 2025

      Interview

      Initial recruiter call followed by call with the hiring manager. The hiring manager missed the scheduled interview and I had to reach out to the recruiter to reschedule. The hiring manager was unprofessional and disrespectful. They were unable to define the companies value proposition or state what differentiates them in the marketplace. Basically, if you are tenacious and hustle, you’ll be successful. I immediately reached out to the recruiter to let them know there was no need to proceed any further.

      Sales Executive Interview

      4 Feb 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paychex (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2025

      Interview

      Recruiter call, then hiring manager, then peer manager, then in-person aspect (either with hiring manager or his boss). only made it to the third round so didn't get to do the in-person part. My location and experience were on my resume and both discussed in the hiring manager interview. He said that he prefers to hire people without PEO experience and that I would be traveling long distances only once a month. After moving past the next stage, I was then denied and told that it was because I didn't have PEO experience and that he needed the applicant to be in a different location because they need to travel 2-3 times a week. Extremely frustrating.
