      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Ascender (Melbourne) in Feb 2016

      Interview

      This was an easy interview as long as you walk in confidentially, have knowledge on Alesco, end to end payroll, knowledge on leave, redundancy, termination as well as accuracy in data entry. Make sure you ask questions through the interview and at the end of the interview. So this shows your interest in the company's growth so far and leaves you with career advancement options.
