Contacted by recruiter, then panel interview, then hiring manager. Pretty straight forward interview. They always look to move quickly when starting interview process. There was no delay in the process or being contacted by the recruiter. Received offer after pending background check.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ADP (Newark, NJ) in Jun 2016
Interview
The interview process happened over the course of three weeks. Initially I was contacted by someone in Ohio who asked me some basic questions about my resume and she was incredibly difficult to read. I would answer a question, there would be silence, then she would ask another. Fortunately I moved on to the next round, a face-to-face interview at a local branch. Scheduling this was a nightmare as the person who was responsible for setting up the interview "took off for the week" and I had to make arrangements with someone else. I only had the interview confirmed two days prior to it. The woman who interviewed me was incredibly kind. She essentially told me I nailed it and showed me around as if I would be moving on to the next round. She told me that "If you don't get hired, you will get a phone call from the head of the department, but I can tell you right now that I doubt that will happen". It went so well, I really got my hopes up about the position, which if the interview hadn't gone so well I wouldn't have. Either way, I received a generic email this past Sunday telling me that I wouldn't be moving forward with them. I think when you have already interviewed face-to-face you should be contacted by a person on the telephone, as my interviewer told me would happen. I would have preferred to receive the email on a Monday, as to not ruin the entirety of my Sunday evening. Despite all of this I think ADP would still be a great company to work for. I really loved the environment and I will continue to apply to different roles.

Thank you for this open and honest review. We are sorry that it didn't work out but hopefully in the future as you seem very enthusiastic about the ADP environment and culture.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ADP (Orlando, FL) in Jun 2016
Interview
Conducting mass hiring and was in a room of over a dozen people. Varying managers would come out, call a name so you never knew who was there for what. Interviewer was twenty minutes late. Also the person interviewing me did not live in the area, nor was transferring to the location and was brought in just to interview candidates.

Question 1
Standard interview but interviewer became more interested in my current job rather than skills I could bring to the company. Although I was changing industries, the skill set was extremely similar.
