News

Hiring, retention, and communication get more complex at scale. Paylocity is meeting the moment with enterprise-ready solutions built for large, dynamic workforces. As we close out 2024 and step into 2025, our latest updates are designed to streamline high-volume hiring while enhancing engagement and communication across a large, dynamic workforce. 

Experience fast and hassle-free interview scheduling

Say goodbye to the back and forth of scheduling interviews with candidates. With Interview Self-Scheduling, invite candidates to schedule their own interviews based on interviewers’ availability. Automated notifications ensure all participants stay informed, reducing delays and creating a smooth scheduling process.

Make informed hiring decisions with pre-hire assessments

Seamlessly integrate with pre-hire assessment vendors thorough our Marketplace to evaluate candidates’ skills and characteristics. The integrations —including Criteria, eSkill, HighMatch, and Plum — allow you to initiate, manage, and review assessment results easily within Paylocity's Recruiting platform, without manual data entry or switching platforms.

Identify top candidates without draining your team’s time

Find top candidates with advanced filtering, customizable views, and bulk action capabilities within the job lists. For each job, quickly review and compare candidates in a concise list view, simply scan through candidates’ profiles in a carousel format, and use advanced filters to bring top candidates to the surface. Taking bulk actions directly from the list saves you valuable time and accelerates hiring decisions. You can further dive into a candidate profile to access a consolidated view of the candidate’s data and communication with them. Initiate pre-hire assessments and background checks, and send interview invites and offer letters — all in one place.

Automate meal attestations for accurate payroll and compliance

Configure automatic attestation prompts and meal waiver criteria. Eligible employees can respond to the prompt at clock-out, and premium adjustments will be automatically reflected and noted on the employee’s time card. Save time, reduce payroll errors, and simplify compliance with automated time card calculations based on employee attestations. 

Gain insight into your business units’ engagement

A new Employee Voice heatmap dashboard makes it easier to compare engagement levels across your organization. Company-set users can filter results by individual company IDs, comparing engagement levels to identify patterns, address concerns, and drive meaningful improvements.
