I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Paychex (Kennesaw, GA) in Nov 2012
Interview
It was very short and fairly easy. They were very nice. They wanted to know what my goals were in life and if I could see myself making Paychex a permanent career choice if so, I would be will to move up in the company. They wanted to know if I had any experience in the admin department i was applying for. Then they showed me around the office to meet everyone. I also went and met all of the admin department and was allowed to sit and watch then do there daily routine. Overall very friendly and welcoming.
2 interviews process speak with a job recruiter and them the manager and final interview with managers it took a solid month to get hired. You have to take a drug test and an excel test
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Paychex (Rochester, NY) in Jun 2022
Interview
My recruiter did a great job assessing my skills and helping me apply for multiple positions that would be a good fit. He got me in front of the right people!
Interview cancelled 2 minutes before scheduled time..............
I applied Sunday & was contacted Monday by a Talent Acquisition Rep to schedule a phone interview. I was given an array of dates & times to select via Calendly for a 30 minute phone call. I selected my time, scheduled the time off of work (all times were during 9-5 hours) and planned on receiving a call 2 days later.
2 minutes before the scheduled call, I got a passive email from the Talent Acquisition Rep stating 'Sorry for the short notice, but after reviewing your profile, we will not be moving forward with the candidacy. 2 minutes before the scheduled call, this is not an exaggeration.
I of course am too worried about replying back with some disappointment in the process, as I am concerned it will severe ties with the company, but then again- do I want to work somewhere where a 2 month employed recruiter (I looked him up via LinkedIn) did his job so irresponsibly that he waited 2 minutes before a scheduled call, didn't review my profile on #1 selecting me as a candidate clearly, but #2 look at it again before our call.
Not to mention, PayChex/SurePayroll has NO way of getting in contact with someone internally regarding this matter, as I feel they have the right to know that there are recruiters doing a poor job at representing the company
