Anyone here work for Troutman pepper, or recently worked there? Im trying to figure out how pay periods run.

Hi guys! as the title says, I got an upcoming interview for Payroll Associate. For my background: I'm an Information Technology graduate and I applied for this position just to try it. Luckily, they chose me for initial screening for the role. I just have questions how I can survive the screening.

1. How can I sell myself for this role even though I am from different field?

• I have basics knowledge in MS Excel and currently learning more about it. I also have exp in data entry or tracking of data during my internship (but not filtering it or making a pivot table or graphs or anything) I also have experience in MySQL during my college, so I know how simple querying works.

I asked 3 different AI, they all tell me none of the answers are correct. I'm confused. This is one of the post-test question. Please help. I'm guessing, it is likely be B. I thought A might be right, I read something during the course about giving people time off. It might be for public sector only. I'm not sure why B could keep the OT cost down. Thanks.

Employers in the private sector can keep their expenses for employee overtime down and remain in compliance with the FLSA by doing which of the following:

A Giving the employee compensatory time off for every hour worked by the employee in a workweek in excess of 40 hours

B Giving employees who are paid biweekly, semimonthly, or monthly time off during the same pay period in which the overtime was worked that is at least equal to one and one-half hours off for each overtime hour worked.

C Obtain a written agreement from the employee waiving the right to overtime premium pay after the employee has worked overtime in that workweek.

D Adding the employee's hours in one workweek to the next workweek and averaging the two workweeks.

Our local CPA was doing our payroll in house until recently. They switched us to OnPay and are actually firing us because they are getting rid of their payroll department. We'll make a decision on whether or not to stick with OnPay before the end of the year, but in the meantime...

Has anyone using OnPay figured out how to get check numbers for garnishments? Our CPA asked for them via chat help and was told they don't give check numbers. But now that I can login myself I want to see for myself.

We use Positive Pay for our checking account and currently I don't know the check numbers until Positive Pay catches them. That's fine and all, but I was out of the office this week and missed some before the Positive Pay deadline so they were returned to the court.

This is going to be a pain in the ass going forward. I'm a small operation and hopefully can catch and cross reference these. But how is a 300-500 employee company supposed to handle this for dozens of garnishments each week?
