It largely depends on the employer. In the US, I’ve been paid weekly, every other week, and monthly. As for overtime, again, it depends on the employer and the jurisdiction. Some employers absolutely forbid overtime. Federal requirements state anything over 40 hours in a week is paid at nothing less than 1.5x the hourly rate. But some employers, states, and industries have their own rules. I worked at a place that paid OT for anything more than 10 hours in a day, or 40 hours in a week and paid double time for anything after the 7th day in a row.
