Bug Report: Instant Scroll on Field Click
I sent a shot-in-the-dark email to support@paylocity.com because their "contact us" page is just a glorified FAQ with no way to submit a bug report for their application. I'm posting it here to increase the chances of it getting to their development team.

Problem: As an applicant, you have an extremely frustrating bug during the application process that causes the page to instantly scroll to the bottom the second you click on any drop-down field.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Apply to a role: https://recruiting.paylocity.com/Recruiting/Jobs/Apply/4182780
- At the last step in the application process, you are asked to input demographic information. This is where the bug occurs.
- Click on any dropdown item on that page
Expected Result: You can make a selection in the field.
Actual Result: The browser immediately scrolls to the bottom of the page, deselecting the dropdown and preventing you from making a selection. You can't even tab your way through the field as a workaround.
Scope: I have encountered this bug on multiple job applications with multiple companies over the last few weeks.
Please get your development team to fix this as a critical item because it makes the already Sisyphean task of applying to jobs even more arduous, leading to me backing out of any application with "Paylocity" in the URL.
