I applied online and was contacted the same week. The interview forgot about our scheduled phone meeting and returned my call after about 30 minutes after we were supposed to start- she "went out for a drink and completely forgot we had an interview". When we started, it sounded like she was reading from a checklist of questions, responding to every question with one word responses, I could tell it was going nowhere and she wanted to get through it so she could probably get another drink. She informed me the position I was interviewing with her for was already filled, and she had zero knowledge of the compensation plan. Complete waste of time. I was excited for Gusto and was never really given a shot. Could be a great company but the recruiter reflected very poorly on the company

The Interview Process was split into 7 steps: 1. Initial phone call with recruiter 2. Follow-up phone call with second recruiter 3. Take home assignment 4. Feedback on assignment and assignment revision 5. Three in office interviews with members of the team and manager 6. Follow-up phone call to answer last minute questions 7. Submission of three references Though the process was lengthy, the amount of thought and care that was put into the recruitment process was both impressive and appreciated. One could tell how much Gusto valued their employees by how they sought to find those that best fit the company vision and spirit. It was this reason, among others, that I accepted the offer they extended me.
