The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paylocity (Lake Mary, FL)
Interview
Recruiter gives a phone interview first followed by a zoom interview. The recruiter was very nice and really tried prepping you for success. During the zoom interview we went over the 1 hour time slot. When it was finally my turn to ask questions I asked challenging questions similar to what they asked me, but they did not really know how to answer and got somewhat aggressive/ defensive. They are all about "asking questions" yet when I asked a question they got annoyed. They were also offering low pay even with a college education- $1 more than somebody with no degree. I don't believe this would be a great company to work for.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time where you had to deescalate a situation with a client.
I applied online. I interviewed at Paylocity (Schaumburg, IL) in Jun 2026
Interview
The interview process started with 4 assessments. There were timed math, spatial awareness and reasoning assessments and an untimed behavioral assessment. From there I was contacted for a Microsoft teams interview with my recruiter. After that, there was an in-person interview with the hiring managers. I had a third interview on Teams, but I don't think that is normally the case. All in all the process was great, they made it easy and it went quickly. I never went more than 2 business days without hearing from someone.

Interview
Nice interview and interviewee. Did my first phone call interview and everything seems nice and straight to the point. I was informed about the pay and busy seasons but looking at the previous reviews, it is kind of making me raise some eyebrows.
