A couple of weeks after applying, I received a call from a recruiter who screened me. I was told there would be at least five rounds of interviews and was given a summary of what would be asked during each round.
I received an email to set up the next interview. The email stated that the competency the interview would address was Workday Core Values.
Round 1:
I was not asked about any of the core values of Workday, even though I was told it would be the focus and it was in the email. I was taken off guard and thought I was given the wrong interview. Instead, the interview consisted mostly of technical questions. I have no problem with that, but I was again taken off guard because I had spent a lot of time prepping and learning about the VIBE culture. The interviewer did not seem interested in me at all. A bunch of questions were given at rapid fire.
There was no follow-up after the interview. Since I thought I was given the wrong interview, I followed up with the recruiter, only to be ghosted. After several attempts at contact, I was told I was given the correct interview. The recruiter didn't know why they hadn't asked the questions that were prompted for me. At that time, I was told I wasn't selected for the role.
The whole process was very disorganized. I would have appreciated the correct information about the interview topic.
