What are the differences between maternity and paternity leave at APS Payroll?
APS provides employer-paid short term disability that may be used as maternity leave. The policy pays for a percentage of the employee's weekly salary during a 6 week period. I'm not sure if the policy extends to paternity leave.
I don't think there are any as far as policy. I feel like in general there are differences in expectations of absence, but not necessarily specifically (or at all?) at APS.
FMLA - if it isn't a part of that, I don't think we have it.
What does the ideal candidate in the Customer Support department look like at APS Payroll?
Naturally friendly and helpful, have good written & verbal communication skills, patient, able to learn complex payroll information and setup, able to multi-focus (i.e. you rarely get to start and finish something without interruption), able to work and focus in an open office environment.
We have a variety of people, so you can't narrow it to 'ideal'

How's the vacation policy at APS Payroll?
It's adequate, average. By the time you make it to 5 years, you get 4 weeks of PTO per year. With the stress level of the job and the low number of company holidays, it might be nice to have more, and to earn more on a more frequent schedule.

Future looks bright, but the goals and aspirations of where we as a company want to go are rarely shared with the front line.
What should I wear for an interview at APS Payroll?
While our dress code is casual, it is always a good idea to present yourself in a professional manner. For men, I would say a tie is optional, but a nice button up shirt and dress pants, possibly with a jacket if you're so inclined. For ladies, dress pants & blouse, or a dress would be fine. No need to be fancy, just professional.
Business Casual - Don't be surprised if you see the interviewer in jeans.
