I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Paycom (Chicago, IL) in Sep 2020
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me on Linkedin to set up an interview. I had a video call interview with the sales manager (IIRC). It was a stiff and cold interview. I was a fresh college grad with no technical sales experience and the interview constantly seemed to display doubt in my abilities for the position. I personally appreciate an interview that follows more like a genuine human conversation because that is the most natural, authentic version you'll get of a candidate or the employer.

Other Outside Sales Representative interview reviews for Paycom
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.

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.
At Paycom, we take pride in providing professional and transparent interview experiences for all of our candidates. Your review does not align with these standards, and we’d like the opportunity to learn more. Please reach out to hrmgmt@paycomonline.com and someone from our team will be in touch.
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.
