I had an initial interview with Dominion Payroll, with someone named Marquise. It was a preliminary phone interview. Everything went well during the phone interview, and I was moved to the next round. Once scheduled, a week later Marquise requested a new interview time, as there was an "important meeting" that the invoked parties had to attend. I provided multiple dates and times for the rescheduled interview and didn’t hear anything back. It was very unprofessional but it helped me decide that this company was not a good fit for me.

I had a phone interview that went well, with typical questions. Afterwards, I was invited for a longer, hour-and-a-half interview process, and also sent some skills and personality tests. The personality test was the most discriminatory I've encountered, and it was obvious it was designed to screen out people with disabilities, even if those disabilities don't impact job performance. The skills tests were pointless: one was about payroll taxes, which I'd already stated wasn't part of my experience and isn't required for this role, and the other was about high school math (geometry and algebra) completely unrelated to the company's business. When I got there in person, the original interviewer handed me off to a coworker who only spoke with me for 15 minutes, signaling I was no longer being considered and they were just going through the motions.

after a 35min convo with HR, an online personality and math test that took about 45min to complete, an hour in person interview and then a teams call with upper level mgmt that was drawn out over a months time i still don't have a "thanks for your time" or an offer. the whole process felt incredibly drawn out for a position that is deemed entry level. no one seemed to be able to give any indication on when the hiring process would wrap up. it's not hard to simply respect people enough to keep them in the loop.

The interview process involved technical informational questions, work ethics and past experience questions, and industry-specific tests. The entire process from initial contact to the first day took about two weeks, with the hiring process becoming much easier after the initial week.
