Workday Problems During Job Applications

Post

Hello,

I am chairing a search committee in my school. Applicants are required to upload 8 documents (such as, CV, job market paper, DEI statement, etc.). Screening begins Dec. 1st. We found out that applicants are having the following issues:

1. Inability to upload all documents.
2. Inability to view or edit their application if they log back in.

So far we have 75 applications. Given the time constraint, we sent out an email to all applicants to send us their materials directly and that we will upload them. This is a massive amount of work to be done in a few days. Additionally, we have to track every new applicant and ask them to send us their application materials. Workday has been extremely inefficient and reflects poorly on the university. We received an email from an applicant that they are withdrawing their application because of their experience with the Workday process. Is it possible to resolve these types of issues?

Thank you,

Bidisha Mandal
