I feel exactly the same. I simply don't apply to companies that use Workday for recruitment. I hate companies that disrespect applicants.

Garunteed workday HR outs workday applicants and informs 3rdparty companies of what youre doing including your current employer.

>Why do you ask me to upload my resume and then still prompt me to manually enter data? Question for hiring managers and HR teams: do you all rely on manually-input work and education histories? When I've hired (albeit only at small companies) I just read resumes.

I was in an employment group and a guy who was laid off from Workday joined and he did not at all realize just how bad the product was until he was on the other side.
