I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ADP (Kansas City, MO) in Apr 2020
Interview
1st conversation with a recruiter. 2nd interview over the phone with the hiring sales manager. 3rd interview with the VP of Sales. 4th interview I was asked to prepare a 15 minute PowerPoint presentation for a sales call role play in addition to a 10 minute slideshow presentation on why I was a good fit for the role. A week and a half later I received an email letting me know they decided to go in another direction. Although the interviews themselves were not difficult, the amount of time put into building a PowerPoint presentation just to receive a rejection via email may be a bit too much to ask for some.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at ADP (Independence, OH) in Nov 2025
Interview
Awful interview process overall. Was rushed through the interview process during the holidays. 5 interviews were had, and on the 5th interview, a 45 minute presentation was required. Was told after the 5th interview that they would have a decision by the end of the week or early the week after. Here we are 3 weeks later. As much as they may seem like they really want you and think you’re the perfect candidate, they don’t and you’re not. You’re just a number. You don’t mean anything. Should have listened to all of my peers around me when they said ADP is an awful company to work with and work for. Do better.
It was a fairly Standard SAAS interview. First there is an Initial screening with HR, followed by more in depth with sales executive, final one usually with VP. Appreciated that there was clear and good communication on next steps through out the process.

Question 1
How you would research to gain access to a prospect.
The interview process started with a screening call with a recruiter. Then a preliminary phone interview followed by a video interview with a hiring manager. The final round was in person and included a shadow dial session and a practice pitch in front of a group of hiring managers.
