I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ADP (Clackamas, OR) in Mar 2014
Interview
Initial interview was with a recruiter who then has you meet with the District Sales Manager. You'll then meet with the Sales Managers and will have to do a ride along with another Associate District Manager to ultimate decide if it's a good fit. If all goes well you will do a final interview sales pitch of the products ADP carries to the District Sales Manager.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ADP (Minneapolis, MN) in Jan 2010
Interview
The interview was generally behavioral. You meet with group managers where they basically decide if you are personable enough for sales and whether they like you. If you pass that round, the next round is a meeting with the VP to do a mock sales call. This was unexpected. I was given a packet of information and 20 minutes to put together my pitch. Then the VP comes in and you sell him whatever the facts tell you to sell how the facts tell you to sell it.

Question 1
The case was completely unexpected but goes well. The VP does not try to embarrass you or bring you down. Additionally, it is essentially what you will be doing in the job itself so it is good practice.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at ADP (San Diego, CA)
Interview
Two interviews with office managers and one with the VP of the office. Behavioral questions, some personal related to background, etc. Role-playing with a couple of minutes of preparation. A ride along with one of the reps in the office to see if you fit in with the office culture and to see how you speak to prospects.
