If Paylocity already runs payroll, HR and onboarding at your company, the hiring step before all of that is often the part still handled by hand. This page covers the Paylocity AI interview integration: what NTRVSTA connects to Paylocity for, how HR teams use the two together, and what setup looks like. NTRVSTA connects to Paylocity, so people hired through an AI first-round interview do not start their employee record from a blank form.
What the Paylocity AI interview integration does
The integration carries hired candidates and their interview context into Paylocity. The goal is simple: the record your recruiter closed and the record your HR and payroll team opens on day one should describe the same person, the same role and the same start, without someone retyping it between systems.
NTRVSTA does its work earlier in the funnel. An AI interviewer holds a live conversation with each candidate, by video avatar or audio only, and changes its follow-up questions and difficulty based on the answers. Your team gets a scored report. Paylocity keeps doing what it does for the employee after the offer: payroll, HR records and the rest of the employee experience. Nothing about your Paylocity configuration has to change to add an interview step in front of it.
How teams use NTRVSTA with Paylocity
- Multi-location hiring without a recruiter at every site. Candidates for each branch or facility take the first round 24/7 from a link, and HR reviews scores centrally before anyone books an on-site visit.
- One standard first round per role. Customize the questions and avatar once per role, so every applicant for, say, a payroll specialist or a warehouse lead gets the same structured interview.
- Shortlists that start with the resume. AI resume scoring ranks applicants against the job description, so managers only invite the strongest fits to interview.
- Hand-offs your hiring managers can read. Shareable reports include a score breakdown (technical skills, English proficiency, communication), highlights, notes and video snippets of key moments.
- A bias audit you can point to. NTRVSTA has a published independent NYC Local Law 144 bias audit, summarized on our compliance page, which helps when HR or legal asks how the AI step was reviewed.
Setting it up
Our team connects Paylocity to your NTRVSTA account. For most teams that takes a few days, depending on customization. You will need someone with admin rights in Paylocity, usually an HR systems owner or payroll lead, to approve the connection on your side.
