      Specialist Interview

      Mar 16, 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Oklahoma City, OK
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Paycom (Oklahoma City, OK) in Mar 2018

      Interview

      There is one on phone screening interview followed by two in person interviews. After the phone screen, you are asked to complete a couple skills assessments. After passing these two portions, you are asked to wait while a background check is ran, a drug screen is performed, and your references are checked. I was given a conditional offer after my interviews, which I gladly accepted. The request for references was sent to me later in the evening on Friday night and they give you 24 hours to complete this. Being later in the day, I contacted those references I could get ahold of that late in the day. I included more than requested, due to this timing, knowing some would come back later than the 24-hour window. A couple of weeks passed and I was made to feel as though I had the position. I receive a call Tuesday that they rescinded my offer and wanted me to review my background check, which I gladly did to ensure nothing weird was possibly showing. After this, I called them to let them know that the only issue I saw was with my education portion not including all of my education, which they assured was not an issue. I was told it was probably an error with my references. I contact my references to see if they ran into any issues and I am told the only contact they had with the company was through the initial survey, no calls were made to verify these references. Some of my references even personally disclosed that they gave me nothing but praise and were highly disappointed that this was being used against me. At first, I thought very highly of this company but after my dealings with HR and how this was handled with very little transparency, my opinion of this company has plummeted.

      We’re sorry to hear that you no longer think highly of Paycom as an employer. We can’t speak to reasoning behind your offer being rescinded as we are not privy to that information. At Paycom, our HR team sends reference surveys and offers can be rescinded if negative comments are left. We wish you the best of luck in your career search.

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paycom (Oklahoma City, OK) in Aug 2025

      Interview

      The process moved quickly, took just about two weeks in total. Had a couple of phone screening calls and then an in person interview. Process was smooth and the recruiter I dealt was quick to communicate and follow up with me.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Paycom (Oklahoma City, OK) in Nov 2023

      Interview

      I submitted my application, one of many, and all of my information was saved from the last time. In a very short turnaround, they contacted me for a phone screening. They asked me some simple questions about myself and then gave me a lot of information about the job and Paycom. She said that she would forward me on to the next round and gave me some pointers on how to perform well in the interview stage. I received an email with some suggested material to review and notes on how to interview. My interview happened quickly after that and was just 2 other people and myself sitting at a round table. They asked only about 5 questions and asked if I had any questions. I asked my questions and then left. I got the call offering me the position the next day.
