Enterprise hiring platforms like Workday operate in isolated company-specific environments (tenants).

As a result:

  • Candidates must create a new account for every company using Workday.

  • Resume and work history must be re-uploaded repeatedly.

  • Application data is fragmented across employers.

  • High friction leads to candidate drop-off.

  • There is no reusable, standardized candidate identity across Workday-powered portals.

This creates inefficiency at scale:

  • Poor candidate experience

  • Increased application abandonment

  • Duplicate profile storage

  • Reduced hiring velocity

In a digital-first hiring ecosystem, the lack of cross-tenant identity portability represents a structural design gap.

Can Workday introduce a secure, cross-tenant Universal Candidate Identity system that allows applicants to maintain one centralized profile and reuse it across all Workday-powered employer portals — without compromising enterprise data privacy?
