I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Paychex in Feb 2012
Interview
Interview was awful, when I asked questions such as turnover and comp plan changes, hiring manager became very defensive...seems as though he realized I would see straight through issues this company is currently having and only wants to hire Naive people. Even went to the extent of him saying you act like you don't want to be at this interview like your not excited about the position. I had to remind him that he has only asked about my career OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS, and nothing had been mentioned about the position to get excited about. Then when they talk about the comp plan, they try to include the "expense account" in your base salary...Hello - expenses are just that..this is only a reimbursement of what you have taken out of your pocket, this is not income!

Question 1
Let's go all the way back to high school...what did you do in high school that you feel has contributed to your current job?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paychex (Tigard, OR) in Feb 2012
Interview
I more or less have a question. I did a phone interview on this week, and have a 1 on 1 interview last next week. I am hopeful that i wil get this pt position. So far all has gone ok. I know some people who work here in various areas, but they have worked there for a long time and dont know the answer.
on the application does it ask if "you have ever been commited of a crime" or "in the last 10 years have you been commited of a crime" or something along those lines. I am just wondering any help is helpful. thanks
I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Paychex in Jun 2011
Interview
I initially interviewed for a position in another city where they chose a person who was already licensed to sell insurance products.
They called me back to interview for a Benefits sales job in a different location.
In both instances the Sales Executives who interviewed me had not even looked at the very long application which I had filled out in advance of our meeting. That was fine. Sometimes the ultimate person making the decision might want to start the ball rolling from scratch.
The line of interview questions were all geared towards a 22 year old coming right out of college. They asked me my GPA, what activities I pursued in college, etc. I graduated from college back in the 80's.
I shut down after the first 5 minutes and obviously did not get a call back. This was not an entry level position. I am not sure if this company is interested in hiring anyone over the age of 30.
