I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Workday (Berkeley, CA) in Mar 2016
Interview
There was a phone interview and then a technical writing sample. However, problem was they never responded after that (months after). It was difficult to get into contact with them, and altogether I was disappointed by the lack of communication and professionalism demonstrated by the Workday HR team. I've heard great things about the company itself, but I believe they should try to improve in this area as much as possible.
There was a screening round with a recruiter, a round with a manager, an assessment, and panel interviews with senior technical writers and technical writing managers. I would rank this interview process as “difficult” just because it’s through and included several rounds. But, the recruiter was excellent about staying in touch and the process was very smooth despite multiple steps. It was all very efficient and wrapped up in about a month.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Workday in July 2023
Interview
After the entire interview process, management decided that the job couldn't be done in my location after all. Offered to let me relocate to another state with no assistance and four weeks notice, even though there's an office miles from my home.
