I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CBIZ (Chicago, IL) in Feb 2018
Interview
I applied through our university's career website. It only took a couple of days after the application due date when they invited students to select their time preferred for the interview. I got interviewed by one partner who was extremely nice and was very passionate about the company and her career. She was really inspiring. It was only a thirty minute interview and then it was done. I got an email after a week inviting me for an office visit. I declined because I already have offers from my top two and felt like it was the right thing to do so they can focus on other students.
The recruiter seemed very uninterested, was very awkward asking questions. I did not receive a second interview but I am not surprised. The conversation overall just did not flow well. It was my first interview at that point so I believe it didn't go well for a variety of reasons.
I applied online. I interviewed at CBIZ in Oct 2025
Interview
2 interviews. One interview with HR and then one interview with 2 workers in the department you apply to. Both were virtual so no need to go to an office.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions are similar to basic interview questions like describe a challenge and how you overcame it, where do you see yourself in 5 years, what's your CPA goal, etc.
very quick and easy, there wasn't much asked. I talked to the campus recruiter and then I spoke with an HR person from a different location. they got back to me within a few weeks and I managed to receive an offer
