      Payroll Specialist Interview

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at ADP (Pune) in Dec 2024

      Interview

      On December 11, 2024, I attended an interview at ADP Company through Transcendence Human Resources, following instructions to arrive by 3 PM. I arrived early at 2:30 PM, yet I had to wait for an hour before the first round of interviews commenced. After successfully completing that round, the HR representative indicated that I would progress to the next stage. However, I was kept waiting for an additional two hours before being invited for the second round, which I believed went well. The interviewer asked me to wait for further proceedings, and after approximately 45 to 50 minutes, I was called for the next round. During this stage, the interviewer posed basic questions to which I provided comprehensive responses, receiving positive feedback, such as remarks of "good" and "perfect," from the interviewer. However, I was subsequently informed that the HR personnel had left for the day and that I would hear back regarding my application status. Despite a minor accident on my way home, I retained optimism about my interview performance, convinced that my efforts would yield positive results. The following day, I reached out to my recruiter at Transcendence Human Resources for feedback, only to learn that it was still pending. After a day of anticipation, I followed up again and learned that I had not been selected for the position. I am left questioning the reason for my rejection, as I did not receive any valid explanation. This lack of constructive feedback, coupled with the prolonged and uncertain interview process, has left me thoroughly disappointed. It is my opinion that the overall experience was unprofessional and unsatisfactory.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      If you are telling about yourself be aware that whatever you say about your can be your next question. If you say you love watching movie so they will ask you about your favourite actor/actress, movie and the last movie you watched. Similarly if you say you love listening to music they will ask you genre, favourite singer and favourite song. So whatever you say about your favourite and hobby please prepare your for the same topic.

      Interview

      The interview went well. I met with payroll managers who asked both behavioural and technical questions. They created a fairly comfortable atmosphere, which helped me answer confidently and engage meaningfully throughout.

      Application

      I interviewed at ADP (Tempe, AZ)

      Interview

      Started with and over the phone interview, where the recruiter asked if I had questions. Once I began to ask a question she cut me off and said the hiring manager would actually be answering any questions you might have. Okay sure. Next step of the process was I needed to do a video interview. We agreed upon a time of midafternoon. A few hours before my scheduled time I get an email saying actually she’s not available at this time anymore, we’re signing you up for this time. A time I wasn’t available as I take night classes. Next day I get an email saying I’m no longer being considered. Was a highly unprofessional process.
