Workday Recruiting Reviews & Product Details

Workday-recruiting has the most insightful Questionnaire, The way it is grouped makes a recruiter's life easy.

We can have multiple sections regarding our specific needs and can completely customize the requisition details Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a little bit verbose, we have a few details which are very obvious but still need to be filled in.

The UI can be made more intuitive, right now it looks dull Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main page provides a dashboard view displaying current posting metrics. This is really about it; flow and form design requires too much navigation and application material view is restrictive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The setup and flow are not user-friendly. The established workflow is frustrating and requires you to select steps you may not complete but must check the box to proceed. Have missed pages of resumes as the design requires a click-thru versus proving the entire document view (scrollable). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

WD Recruitment gives us an end-to-end talent acquisition application built to help you find, share, engage, and select the best internal and external candidates for your organization. We can manage the entire recruiting lifecycle, workforce planning, sourcing, and advanced talent analytics. The recruiting process became transparent, and collaboration across the entire hiring team.

There is a learning curve, once you train the users, this is a great system. Not many complaints at this time. We need to depend a lot on the consultants in the beginning till few years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I like about this platform for recruiting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

How much time do you have? Full disclosure, we use the "Position Management" model in Workday Recruiting. That has a lot to do with the sentiments below. Workday Recruiting is a black hole into which all ease, process, progress, structure, and general wellbeing get sucked in. For our team, nothing is able to happen without an admin pushing it through. Each task is dependent upon a million other elements and sometimes it's just difficult to have all that information from the organization so for a new recruiter coming in, assimilating to this platform is painful. There is no UI to speak of so it's very difficult to navigate visually. To get pieces of information related to the candidate or job requisition, multiple clicks are required to navigate to vastly different parts of the platform, only then to have to go back to your original candidate profile page. Using this platform is exhausting and requires all of a person's willpower. Workday touts that the system is customizable but this is a bug not a feature. It's so customizable that unless you take care of every aspect and module, nothing will actually work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I particularly like the streamlined navigation to review candidates and the different stages of your recruitment process. Others have been clunky, and since we use Workday for everything, this tool is fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the split-screen views are not ideal if you have a smaller screen. It's a nitpick, but I would prefer a bit more customization to the panel views. All the info is there, but in some panes you have to scroll a little too much for your info. I recognize this might be my institution's default, but we require a lot of column data so not sure there is a way around it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like much with this program. However, I can say I like that the program will display current job openings the company has. I actually preferred the previous program because the navigation was more straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am not too fond of this particular program. First of all, program navigation is difficult. To search, the user must be very concise with what topic they are searching for. Or the user must have the correct keywords provided by the developer since each company can customize their program software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workday offers a multitude of resources when looking to create and fill a requisition. The process is laid out very well, especially for individuals who have never had to complete this process before. The system is logical and provides helpful tips; it will also connect you with an individual for further assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the system is very efficient as a whole, there have been times in which completing a requisition has been a little more difficult. There were sometimes options available which I had never seen before, such as Evergreen. This was not a frequent occurrence and was resolved swiftly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workday is easy to navigate and I can find what I'm looking for fairly quickly. We use it as our central hub for not only recruiting but also to look at things like pay statements and internal job searching. It's nice to have a central system for everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Getting into the nitty gritty of individual job reqs can be a little overwhelming at times and I'm not sure all the information included is really necessary. I'd like a more streamlined look for the candidate application section. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has the CV submission function that limits the size of the file that saves a lot of space. Also it has the feature of adding the interests, skills that is helpful for assessing the candidate's ability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the factors that I dislike is the subject area or specialization. It has a limited subject or area of specialization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is easy to look at. Specifically, the tiles that point you to different parts of the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workday recruiting is not built with much thought regarding recruiter engagement. It requires an excessive amount of clicks for almost any transaction. There is little flexibility to address company needs or changes in the market. The reporting interface is unwieldy and does not connect data that would be beneficial to have connected. For example, job data and candidate data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
