the great thing about applying for a lot of jobs is that you get to interact with a lot of workday instances, all of which are terrible. for example, this one parsed my resume and thinks my god damn name is Ryan Computing

Easy now Mr. Computer, you're starting to sound a little overclocked

Thank you for uploading your resume, and linking all of your profiles. Can you do it again, but **our way** (it’s cute, we have knick knacks)

V tempted to just go with “Not Sure” and litmus test their sense of humor. (Dry sour patch faces and hearts are the v worst coworkers/bosses on earth. Those that can pick up and run w/a joke? Fully human. Often humane. Forever my ppl.)

fighting Workday is like 60% of the job application process; I have never once seen that software parse my extremely generic word document resumes in way that made sense

Kinda amazed workday don't have a "CV generator" that spits out a word doc/PDF with whatever details you put into it. Or at least a thing to embed entered form metadata into a pdf. It'd make this whole process quicker for everybody using their software.

One of the few good things about Indeed is that if you enter your information into it you can export a resume PDF that many (not *all* by a long shot, mind you) readers can handle pretty cleanly.
