A company recruiter called me and set up a phone interview for later in the week. The interview lasted about 35 minutes. I was then asked to complete a personality test. After I received another call to schedule an onsite interview. Before the interview I was told I must complete a form giving them my name, social security number, birth date, etc, which is peculiar because now a company I don't work for has all of my personal information.
Anyways I went to the onsite interview and asked for the manager which the recruiter told me to meet with. A supervisor came and met me and said he was getting the manager and asked me to wait. The supervisor came back and said we'll go ahead and start the interview and the manager will be in soon. Well the manager never showed up. The interview was casual and relaxed, not too hard. It lasted over an hour, and I received benefit information, training schedule, as well as a short tour.
I later received a call from the recruiter telling me they decided not to offer me the position, and she read me a scripted response. That's fine I just wonder if me not meeting the actual hiring manager was a factor as to why.
Kind of unprofessional and unfair for the manager to just not show up when this was a scheduled interview.
Also, I was told during the interview that this company does not hire experienced professionals, but only entry level employees with little to no phone service experience, which I found odd.
I found Paylocity through my University's Career Service page, however I was told during the interview they do not like working with students and are not flexible around school at all. I also found that odd, considering where they found my application. You would think if a company did not want to hire students they would not call them in for interviews and waste several weeks of their time, and they would not use a college's career page as a place to find potential applicants.
