Featured Interview

Anonymous Employee in Boston, MA
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UKG (Boston, MA) in Oct 2022
2 part video interview. One with director of the space I was interviewing for and one with a principal engineer. I was extremely nervous but they were incredibly nice. The first person interviewing told me he interviews all the time and he’s not going to “pass / fail” but he would give feedback regardless of if I moved on and I respect and appreciate that. Some technical questions specific to the job description and some questions about past experience.
- The job description is the best “study guide”

Anonymous Employee
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at UKG
Very quick and comprehensive phone screening before another quick and comprehensive second interview via video call. Interviewer was super clear about what they are looking for. I liked the fact that the second interview felt more conversational which is how interviews should be!
- What interested you in this role?

Applied through school cooperative education posting, which was seeking 4 interns. Started off with HR style questions, then moved to engineer with technical questions. The whole interview took around one hour.

Anonymous Employee in Weston, FL
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at UKG (Weston, FL) in Jan 2023
A smooth, online interview process. It was broken down into two rounds: behavioral and technical. Most of the questions were resume-based. Interviewers were more interested in learning about your experiences.
- 1. Tell me about a team-based project you worked on. 2. What was your favorite college course, and why?

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Alpharetta, GA

- Senario questions based on the customer service

Anonymous Employee in Indianapolis, IN
I applied online. I interviewed at UKG (Indianapolis, IN)
3 interviews and the process was straight forward. The whole process took about 2 weeks from start to finish. Everyone was professional and took the time to answer my questions.
- Who are you and what are you doing now? Tell me a time when you didn’t get along with someone and how did you manage that?

Anonymous Interview Candidate
I interviewed at UKG
After the pre-screen, the hr rep said mentioned that the hiring managers were out of the office for the week, but, I’d hear back from them once they returned the following week. Perhaps this was a just kind thing to say, but, I never heard back.
- How did you hear about UKG

Anonymous Interview Candidate
I applied online. I interviewed at UKG in Dec 2022
It took 3 weeks to receive an invitation for a phone screen. Wait another 2 weeks for the next available phone screen and the interviewer seemed uninterested. I did not want to proceed with the process.
- Are you eligible to work in the United States? Name a time you used effective project management. Tell me about yourself.

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Boston, MA
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UKG (Boston, MA) in Dec 2022
The interview process was well run and smooth. Everyone was very friendly and made the process a pleasant one. They really let you do a lot of the talking and allow you ample time to highlight your experience and attributes.
- Tells me about your work experience and personally. Make sure to have done your homework on the company and have some solid questions for them.

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Montevideo
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UKG (Montevideo) in Dec 2022
1. Interview with external recruiting agency. 2. Interview with HR from UKG. Probably the worst interview that I've ever had. The recruiter didn't bother to turn on her camera and asked questions about my last job, which I had already stated that wasn't related to what they were looking for. She didn't let me speak a lot, it was basically her talking nonstop. She didn't write back directly, but the external agency told me that she thought that I wasn't qualified enough for the position.
- Q: What do you know about us?

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Noida
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at UKG (Noida) in Dec 2022
The interview kickstarted with a virtual discussion followed by 3 rounds of in person discussion at the Noida office . The discussions were quite detailed around projects with multiple stakeholders for each discussion.
- The interview process was a pannel of 4 members and took place for 3 hours. The process took place in early dec and the recruiter stated that it's an urgent priority position. However after investing almost 4-5 hours and going through rounds of discussion the recruiter stopped updating on the status. After numerous follow ups, the recruiter said that the position needs another round of discussion which will happen in Feb . It's quite disappointing to experience such a process as a candidate with experience. The entire process involves time investment and the least that a company should follow is updating the candidate on time and not to persuade them if the business is not clear about hiring.
