      Software Developer Interview

      Apr 6, 2018
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Oklahoma City, OK
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paycom (Oklahoma City, OK) in Mar 2018

      Interview

      I was messaged on LinkedIn from somebody who said I have promising looking skills. I wasn't close enough to graduation yet and he told me to connect closer to graduation so I did. I emailed back and forth until I took the skills assessment test which I basically got an A on. This is the only part that they probably got any information on. Also, the recruiter that orchestrated the whole thing was extremely nice. First was the phone interview with the recruiter, which was really basic. Just asked some basic resume questions. She asked what my top 3 programming languages were. After that, we scheduled the first in person interview. First interview was okay. There were no super technical questions or coding questions. The interviewers were nice and the conversation was good. I honestly would have felt more comfortable showing that I have the right skills instead of them asking me random questions. They apparently thought I was good enough for the second in person interview. This interview lasted a good 20 minutes. The second interview was extremely pointless. It lasted 5 minutes. It was impossible to tell what he thought about anything. Mostly "behavioral" and "personality" questions that could be answered by simply looking at my resume. I was waiting for more relevant questions the entire time. It is no wonder that I got no offer because they probably didn't learn anything about me based on their questions. Overall, I am slightly annoyed that after the whole process the reason I didn't get an offer was that I needed a little bit more experience. This seems easily determinable from my resume and knowing that I am graduating soon. Somebody contacted me to begin with and I heard they had good training which is why I thought they wouldn't expect a lot of experience.

      Software Developer Interview

      May 20, 2026
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Paycom

      Interview

      Everything was fine. But during the tech part of the interview, I noticed the interviewer was very talkative. So I asked ahead of time if I could have 2 minutes to read and process the question before he offered any guidance. He only gave me about 20 seconds and kept interrupting my train of thought. It felt like a boss was standing over my shoulder talking the whole time. I got turned off by that. I let the time run out and ended the interview. Personally, would not apply again but others might not have the same experience.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Question about 'what is an abstract class' and some simple SQL questions about joins. Everything was pretty basic.

      Application

      I interviewed at Paycom (Orlando, FL)

      Interview

      It was okay. In my case, the interviewer did not seem friendly at all and was hardly interacting. Even though I explained my entire thought process, he seemed to be distracted by other things lol.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      basic OOP questions, and some Java questions
