Endorsing a Candidate
- On occasion a job applicant may apply to an opening and indicate that they were referred by a TSM, and as part of the application process, they will include the TSM’s name or email address
- Workday will send a task to the named TSMs inbox to endorse the candidate and/or decline to endorse the candidate
- If the TSM accepts the endorsement request, Workday creates a referral record for the candidate’s job application
- If the TSM declines the endorsement request, Workday deletes the association between the worker and the candidate’s job application
