Auto-apply to Dayforce jobs
Yes. Dayforce lets candidates apply without registering, and says that is on by default, so an account is optional unless the employer turns that off. Applier applies on the employer's own Dayforce career site, where the form is built from the sections the employer chooses and some applications include an assessment.
What applying through Dayforce involves
Dayforce, the HR and payroll platform, includes a recruiting module that employers use to run external career sites. Dayforce's Recruiting Guide describes the candidate job application in detail. You click Apply and pick how to provide your details: your saved profile, Apply with LinkedIn or Apply with SEEK where the employer has turned them on, or apply without an account. The form is built from sections the employer chooses: personal information (including how you heard about the job), a resume, cover letter and other documents (up to 5 MB for the resume and cover letter and 20 MB for additional documents), education and employment history, references, work-hours availability, and screening questionnaires, which commonly include an equal-opportunity questionnaire.
Some Dayforce applications also contain an assessment. When the employer embeds one in the application, Dayforce says you complete it with a third-party provider in a separate browser window and can't submit until it is done. Otherwise the assessment arrives by email after you apply. At the end, Dayforce shows an acknowledgment statement that you agree to before you submit, and the career site then confirms the application was received.
Applying with and without an account
Dayforce says candidates can apply without registering, and that this is enabled by default. Applying that way, you still have to agree to the privacy statement where one is set, give your consent about text messages, fill in the required fields including your email address, and agree to the acknowledgment. Without an account you can't keep a profile, save drafts, track the status of your applications or save jobs. Instead you get a reference number, shown on screen and sent by email, which you need if you later want to delete the application. Registered candidates can save a draft where the employer allows it.
Rules that affect repeat applications
Dayforce says a candidate can generally apply to only one posting per job requisition, even if the employer made several postings for it, and applying twice to the same job gets the duplicate automatically declined. The exception is a posting the employer has set as evergreen with a reapply period. Dayforce also says that after you apply, the job no longer shows an Apply button.
How Applier handles Dayforce applications
Applier fills in and submits the employer's own Dayforce form with a tailored resume and cover letter, lists any answer it filled in for you under Answers to check, and can email the hiring manager. How Applier works covers modes and pricing the plans.

Can I apply on Dayforce without an account?
Yes, by default. Dayforce says applying without an account is enabled unless the employer switches it off. You still agree to the privacy statement where one is set, fill in the required fields including your email address, and agree to the acknowledgment.
Can I apply twice to the same Dayforce job?
Generally not. Dayforce says a candidate can apply to only one posting per job requisition, even if the employer made several postings for it, and a duplicate is automatically declined. The exception is an evergreen posting with a reapply period.
How do I delete a Dayforce application I made without an account?
Dayforce gives a reference number on screen and by email after an application made without an account, and you need it if you later want to delete the application.
