Speaking as a person over 40 who has been job-hunting and has encountered Workday roughly 10 times, what I don't understand is whether the "AI-based applicant screening tools, which include personality and cognitive tests" cited in the article are present in every installation, or if they are optional. Optional for either the employer (i.e. it can be switched off, or requires a higher payment tier) or the applicant. I recall one HR platform (probably not Workday) outright requesting my permission to use AI as part of the screening. Something like that. I've always opted out.
