I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Paylocity (Rochester, NY) in Apr 2026

Very organized and the recruiters were very helpful in preparing for the interviews in person or via zoom depending on the job title. Very friendly atmosphere and welcoming nature of the team leads but I was somehow not selected. I am sure the competition is strong.
