A technical recruiter reached out to me about "Application Development" positions at the company. I replied with some interest, and it went from there.

Round 1: Phone interview with a Software Manager. This was a phone screening to get a feel of your abilities and competency in basic OO concepts, as well as some questions about your CV.

Round 2: Tech test in the form of a screenshare, with two developers. This required modeling a real-life scenario using UML. They took it in stages by giving you the requirements and then asking you to progressively add to what you had done. Only class/object diagrams were involved.

Round 3: One day of onsite interviews, focusing on System Architecture, QA, and cultural fit. A co-ordinator would call you before this to give you a rundown of what questions you should prepare for.

Overall, it was an easy enough interview, and the interviewers were nice and friendly.

I received good feedback for the interviews. However, no offer was received because "requirements changed" and the role that I applied for was no longer available, which I was half expecting as a previous Glassdoor user had posted something similar happening to them.

Also worth noting, there is a difference between a "Software Application Engineer" and a "Software Development Engineer" at Workday. Application Engineers work with a proprietary language called Xpresso, which is not a typical programming language. Development Engineers are the ones who use traditional languages for their work. This is something to be aware of.

Talk to them about the architecture of a system that you've worked on.
