Positive experience

Difficult interview

Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Paycom (Irvine, CA) in Apr 2012

Interview

The interview process is hands-on. You come in, meet the team, make cold calls and interact with the other sales reps. Paycom values their culture and you must have a positive attitude, strong worth ethic and drive.

Interview questions [1]

Question 1

Give me an example of a challenge you had to overcome in your last position.

We appreciate your review!

Negative experience

Difficult interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Paycom (Dallas, TX) in July 2024

Interview

Literally having a cold call for three hours straight in the last interview and only getting the job if you set three meetings is insane. You’re also expected to do that from your own personal phone and all the sales reps are blatantly lying on the phone calling into accounts that the previous workers have been calling into for years.

Question 1

Mostly asking about your experience, not much behavioral questions

Negative experience

Easy interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paycom (New York, NY)

Interview

Great company on the surface, very badly handled interviews. Recruiter no showed our first call, and the NYC sales manager ran 40+ minutes late to the interview, and hardly asked any relevant questions. All the while he seemed rushed and uninterested. Promised timely feedback on the interview, never actually followed through. Would not recommend

Interview questions [1]

Question 1

Name three things that your current or previous coworkers would say about you if asked, and explain why.

Answer question

Paycom response

We’re sorry to hear of your unpleasant interview experience. We agree it’s unacceptable to schedule you for an interview and no show or communicate when running that far behind. Holly Carpenter, director of sales recruiting, would like to connect. Please email her at holly.carpenter@paycomonline.com. We wish you the best of luck.

Easy interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Paycom (Fairfield, CT) in Nov 2018

Interview

Phone Interview with recruiter. The recruiter was informative of the company and provided many statistics of how the company has grown over the recent years. I enjoyed my interview and believe the company provides a competitive, yet comforting, environment for new hires and interns.
