      Payroll Team Leader Interview

      May 16, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Wigan, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ArrowXL (Wigan, England) in Apr 2017

      Interview

      Job was advertised via a Recruitment Agency who were very thorough with their interview preparation. 1st Interview was with the HR BP and Yodel Payroll Team Leader in Liverpool - good interview, with a mix of technical and managerial based questions. Most of the interview was talking through past experience, and how this would apply to the role advertised. 2nd Interview was with a HR Administrator and the Financial Controller, similar questions to the 1st Interview, however it seemed that between the 1st and 2nd interview the job role had changed, as in the 1st interview it was based around implementing new payroll software and procedures, and in the 2nd interview they talked about their current systems. There was an excel test in the 2nd interview, not too difficult (VLookup, SUMIFS etc) but it was using a much earlier version of Excel than I use day to day Following the 2nd interview, I was told that no one had been successful in their applications, as they'd decided to change the Job Role. Since, the job has been readvertised a few times with differing Job Titles and Salaries - going off a previous Glassdoor Review this seems to be a common theme which is frustrating as I feel it's wasting applicants' time to advertise a Job when the final decision hasn't been made as to what level applicant they want.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They asked about a time when there had been difficult situations in my current team, and how I have dealt with it.
