      Client Service Representative Interview

      5 Jul 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Denver, CO
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Paychex (Denver, CO) in Jun 2012

      Interview

      I first received an email requesting that I take a skills test (verbal and math skills). It was very difficult, and impossible to answer all the questions in the time allotted. I passed the test still, and later on that day I received a phone call from their recruiter. It was the typical phone interview with questions like "Tell me about yourself" and "What percentage of your day at your old job was spent dealing directly with customers". He then said that the next step was to interview with someone actually in the office, which I didn't hear from until 5 days later to set up a time. At the face-to-face interview, I had a 1:1 interview, followed by a 2:1 interview, and then a 1:1 interview with the manager of the department. They had all normal questions such as "Tell us of a time when you had to deal with an upset customer". After the 2:1 interview they gave me a personality test, which they then took and the manager for the last interview came back with the results and asked me questions based on my answers, such as "I see you might have an issue with not having a set schedule or not having a daily routine, explain" - which was not accurate, but I answered as so. After this, I was invited back in a week for another 1:1 interview with another one of the managers, with the typical questions and they told me they would be in contact within a week with their decision. About a week later I received the typical cold-response of 'the position had been filled' and they would keep my resume on file.

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Paychex in Feb 2023

      Interview

      You apply online, get a screen interview and then final remote interview. With three others management, you try to tell a story about your experience. Seemed ok, but for a well qualified candidate, not offered was strange.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Star questions and talk like it's a conversation.

      Greensboro, NC
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Paychex (Greensboro, NC) in May 2022

      Interview

      I had a phone screening. Then, they approached me via email to schedule a online interview. I scheduled it, got the confirmation email and was online 15 minutes early. No one ever showed up. I contacted my recruiter via email, I didn’t get a response. Then contacted the interviewer twice via email to see what happened and I haven’t gotten a response from him either and it’s been a few days.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I was told to prepare an upbeat story about my career path.

      Client Service Representative Interview

      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Paychex

      Interview

      I needed to come back two separate times for in person interviews because they couldn't schedule all of the interviewers at the same time, this was a little frustrating but they were easy interviews if you can sell your customer service.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      A lot of scenario based questions, ie. tell me a time you had to deal with a difficult customer
