      Outside Sales Representative Interview

      29 Feb 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Paycom

      Interview

      The process was okay. I had a recruiter reach out and interviewed over the phone with her for about a half hour. Straight forward, they move you on to a recruiter at Paycom. This interview, again, is straight forward and then the recruiter sets up a F2F with the sales manager. Again, nothing too hard. Asks why you want to work for Paycom. The next step is interesting. they set you up doing a cold call canvas. I had a pretty bad experience. The list is from their CRM, contacts are old (ex. he hasn't been here for 3 years), a couple of numbers were out of the territory, and they want you to lie about their product and people they helped to get meetings. If you think you will move on to the last step you have another thing coming. Don't assume anything. The question was avoided when I asked what the turnover was in a company like Paycom and what are the reasons someone might leave? I was run around the loop. So they basically got 3 leads for free. Knowing what I do, I would never do that again.

      As you saw firsthand through our detailed interview process, we are very meticulous when hiring for our sales team. One of the steps during a sales interview is phone canvassing prospects from our CRM. We are constantly adding new companies to our database. Congratulations on obtaining the appointments required to move on and we hope you enjoyed the gift card for your efforts. At Paycom, we win with the truth and we would absolutely never condone lying to a prospect. If that truly happened, we would like to learn more and encourage you to email our director of recruiting at tiffany.mcgowen@paycomonline.com. We wish you the best of luck.

      Long process and have to set meetings in front of a manager on the phone. They have you come into the office and make cold calls without knowing the product at all.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paycom (Washington, DC) in Jul 2024

      Interview

      Strung me along through the interview process only to say they were going with someone else after basically telling me I had the job. Then heard that they were starting the interview process with someone I knew indicating they were not going with someone else.

      I interviewed at Paycom (Boston, MA)

      Interview

      Interview was easy but something didn’t feel right so I declined the offer. They seemed to salesy to me, almost like trying to get me to accept on the dot.
