I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ADP (Chicago, IL) in Jun 2024
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me regarding an Account Executive role. We set up a time to talk and then it was requested that the call be moved to the next day, no problem I thought- these things happen.
The next day, I was waiting for our scheduled call and the time came and went. The call started 1/2 hour late, that’s okay / things happen but I was given more information and the recruiter was helpful and wanted to send more information so that I can ask questions and be sure before going on to the next round.
I did have questions but I sense that it aggravated the recruiter. After that, we were going to set up another call but she didn’t confirm. I emailed and the recruiter said she answered my email. This goes on, too much to write here.
This was a very disappointing experience. I didn’t reach out to ADP. ADP reached out to me but ended up only wasting my time repeatedly.
