I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paylocity (Baltimore, MD) in Apr 2019
Interview
Horrible and unprofessional. Recruiter was negligent and didn’t return multiple phones or emails. I set up my own interview and 1v1 with my potential direct manager. Never returned my call or followed up with me after my in-person. The hiring manager conducted a behavioral interview that was concerning and came across as a psychoanalysis instead of an interview. Do yourself a favor, don’t work here! You can do better! They talk up how great their company is, and how awesome they are, but really they are just good sales people overselling you on position that’s comparable to selling door to door. Don’t fall for it. Look elsewhere. How they treat you in the beginning is only the tip of the iceberg.

Other Account Executive interview reviews for Paylocity
It was 2:1 interview style
They asked questions about previous sales expirence and relationship building. They were very clear on the role, and were open to any questions. I personally asked a lot and they were chill but respectable people
Many interview steps but overall a good process. You will need to do a mock presentation and conduct many meetings including Director, VP, SVP, recruiter, and day in the life with another account executive
Great interview process, the leader is great in this area. Great culture as well and enticing package for this HCM account executive roles. Four different interview meetings for this role
