Auto-apply to Workday jobs
Yes. Applier can apply to Workday jobs, but there is no single "Workday application" to fill in: each employer sets up its own career site, its own steps and its own questions, and some require a Candidate Home account before you can apply. Applier works through the employer's own site, so whichever account rule and questions the employer chose are the ones it meets; whether you need an account at all is covered in the guide to Workday accounts.
What applying through Workday involves
Workday is hiring software that thousands of employers use to run their own career sites, so there is no single "Workday application". Each employer sets up its own site, its own application steps and its own questions. Workday's administrator documentation says employers can let candidates register a Candidate Home account on their external career site, and can require that account for every application. Employers can also send candidates with an account requests to complete questionnaires, provide additional information, sign electronic documents, upload IDs or take assessments.
That has two practical consequences for a job seeker. First, the same person can end up with a separate Candidate Home account at each Workday employer they apply to. Second, every employer's form is different, so the questions you answer for one company are not the ones you will see at the next.
Workday is also working on a reusable profile. Its own guide to the Workday Candidate Profile describes a profile you create once and reuse at Workday-powered career sites, signing in with a one-time email code instead of a password. Workday states that it is rolling out gradually from early 2027, that it is never required to submit an application, and that it is a head start rather than a full autofill: it saves reusable details such as contact information, work history, education and skills, but not your answers to an employer's own questions, which you answer yourself for each application.

Will the Workday Candidate Profile fill in applications for me?
Only in part. Workday says its Candidate Profile saves reusable details such as contact information, work history, education and skills, but not your answers to an employer's own questions, which you answer for each application. It also says the profile is rolling out gradually from early 2027 and is never required to submit an application.
Why does each Workday application look different?
Each employer sets up its own career site, so the steps and questions differ from company to company. Workday says employers can also ask candidates with an account to complete questionnaires, provide extra information, sign electronic documents, upload IDs or take assessments.
What if a Workday employer asks for something only I can provide?
Documents, IDs and assessments are the employer's requests to you, so Applier can't invent them. Answers it fills in from your profile are listed under Answers to check, and an application it can't finish shows as Failed in your dashboard so you can complete it yourself.
