    More than half of my recent applications all used the same workday application service, but you need a unique workday account for every fucking company. Why in the world is it not just a single account‽

      It’s intentional and is basically hazing. They think you will want the job more if they make you put unnecessary effort into applying for it.

      In terms of infosec, it’s better for each to have it’s own account as you don’t want any linkages to other organisations with your data.

      It’s a gigantic pain in the hole though when you use a password manager.

      there needs to be a common form for job applications like with college

      they’re incentivized to make it as shitty as possible both for this rite of passage shite as well as de-incentivizing workers in general from switching jobs ‘too freely’. it helps retention knowing how fucking miserable the process is
