Paylocity Director, Sales interview questions

I was recently contacted by a recruiter at Paylocity regarding a potential opportunity and agreed to an initial interview. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing and felt unprofessional from the start. During the call, the recruiter appeared disengaged and did not take the time to review or discuss my background. Rather than asking about my experience, I was simply asked what I currently do. I shared that I currently lead a team of sales executives and outlined my track record, including revenue performance and targets achieved. Despite having over 10 years of payroll sales experience with a major competitor, there was no meaningful follow up or discussion. The conversation quickly shifted to my education, where I was told that candidates typically require a bachelor’s degree. While I understand companies have specific requirements, this should have been reviewed prior to scheduling the interview. The call lasted approximately 8 minutes, even though 30 minutes had been scheduled. The recruiter also mentioned that shorter calls are typical, which was surprising. Overall, the interaction felt dismissive and poorly managed. Given my extensive experience and long term track record in the industry, I expected a more thoughtful and respectful recruiting process. This experience did not reflect that. Advice to Management: Ensure recruiters review candidate qualifications in advance and provide a more professional and engaging interview experience.
