3 virtual interviews. Then I moved on to an in-person presentation that also had 3 in person interviews. The process happened over a 3 weeks period. I have heard it can take months though. The presentation was a mock Steering Committee.

Tell me a time you had to have a difficult conversation
Recruiter screening, followed by behavioral interview, followed by two job fit interviews, and an executive interview. Process was not bad, although it is very long, but the main feedback was that some of the interviewers seem to have pre-conceived notions of experience. This may be due to some of the interviewers being acquired, instead of organically Workday, but they seemed to dismiss prior experience if it wasn't the same solution they had been working on. Just something to note, make sure to explain EXACTLY how it's related to them or they won't understand.

I went through six interviews and a panel presentation, and the process was intense. I was informed that I had been selected for the position but was told I needed to wait for budget approval. However, after two months of hearing the same response without receiving an official offer, I eventually stopped following up.
It’s baffling to think that a company would post a job, conduct interviews, and even tell a candidate they’ve been selected, only to later reveal that the position still needs approval. It makes no sense. Having hired teams and worked with HR for 20 years, I’ve never encountered a situation where a candidate is selected for an unapproved position, only to have their time wasted for two months and then told the position isn't approved. It’s not just frustrating; it’s unacceptable.
Clearly, trust is not one of their hiring principles.

I had a stellar interview with the recruiter – he was awesome and spent a great deal of time with me. As his background was in systems implementations, we really got into technical details and systems. I was impressed and could not wait for my next interview with the hiring manager and colleague. That was a disaster. The first question was ‘tell me about your current project’. That is so vague that I was not sure what direction to take. I believe I was going down the wrong path because I could tell she was disinterested – she had glasses and I could see the reflection that she was reading some other screen and doing work and not looking at me. I don’t believe they even had my resume or asked me anything specific about my background. The other person did not even bother to turn on his camera. When I asked the end if they would like me to expound on anything else, she just gave a rather terse ‘no’. The whole thing lasted about 20 minutes and then they gave me the opportunity to ask questions. I never heard back from the recruiter after this. I really had high hopes and was excited to interview, but after this lack of professionalism – I would not work there.
