Interview
The interviews were relatively easy going, and the people were easy to get along with; however, there were so many steps that proved to be very frustrating. Along the entire process, I was told I was the top candidate, the interviews were getting great feedback, and then I did the role play presentation. I spent many hours preparing for this role play, and admittedly did not do my best, but their feedback immediately after was relatively positive and they said I did a good job and could tell I did my work. Then I went over 24 hours without hearing back, but when I finally did get feedback, it was the opposite of what they said after my role play. They stated a few reasons why they had concerns, more of them seem to be their lack of confidence in their management abilities and training and development. None of their concerns made any sense, and instead of hiring someone else, they're leaving the position open, in a state where they will have very few candidates to choose from.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asked the typical questions about your work experience, how you think you'll do if you're out of industry, and you'll have to speak to MANY people and setup multiple interviews.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Paylocity (Houston, TX) in Apr 2024
Interview
Very vague questions. Interviewer wouldn’t openly share the requirements of the role or what made them reach out to me on LinkedIn about meeting. Sent a follow up email after the interview and never heard back again.

Interview
A joke. I’m starting to think they just post the job but then don’t hire anyone. I applied Sept 23’ and had all the requirements they listed in the job posting. Yet the recruiter said because of my experience she knows they’re going to want me to start as a Growth Market AE, with significantly lesser pay. Again, I had all qualifications they were looking for for the HCM role. Then she gets back to me a few days later just to say they’ve decided not to move forward at all? I’ve seen them post these exact same jobs at least 3-4 times since I’ve applied and out of all the candidates, you haven’t found anyone?? Very bad taste in my mouth about this company.

Got an initial call from the recruiter and was told that they liked what they heard and will be contacted for another interview, and the recruiter just ghosted me with no follow up email. Very unprofessional.
