Steps: Set Up Masked Candidate Profiles

Steps: Set Up Masked Candidate Profiles

You can configure a
Masked Candidate Profile
 to hide certain cards on the profile, which helps eliminate any biased candidate screening.
  1. Access the
    Configure Profile Summary
     task.
    Add the summary cards you want to display on the
    Masked Candidate Profile
    .
    Workday automatically adds these cards on the
    Masked Candidate Profile
    :
    • Job Application Details
    • Active Masked Job Applications
  2. Access the
    Configure Profile
     task.
    Select the profile groups you want to display on the
    Masked Candidate Profile
    .
  3. Access the
    Maintain Masked Recruiting Configurations
     task.
    Create a masked configuration and add the unconstrained security groups you want to mask for any of these recruiting stages:
    • Assessment
    • Review
    • Screen
    Security: The
    Set Up: Recruiting
     domain in these functional areas:
    • Recruiting
    • Talent Pipeline
  4. Select
    Job Requisition
     on the
    Business Process Type
     prompt.
  5. Access the
    Maintain Masked Job Requisitions Defaults
     task.
    Assign job application condition rules to your masked configurations.
    Click
    Default All Job Applications
     button to apply condition rules and masked configurations to all pre-existing active and frozen job requisitions.
Workday doesn't support these recruiting functionalities if you have a masked configuration on a job application:
  • Candidate pools.
  • Duplicates.
  • Parallel stages.
On masked candidate profiles, you won't have access to the:
  • Candidate email and resume attachments, but you can still email a candidate using the
    Send Message
     task.
  • Business process event history while viewing a masked job application.
Workday doesn't apply the masked configuration on candidate-based reports if at least 1 of a candidate's multiple applications is in an unmasked stage. Workday recommends you use job application-based reports instead, to avoid exposing candidate information. Example: Use the
My Candidates in Progress
 report in place of the
My Candidates
 report.
Configure your candidate list assignment in accordance with your masked configuration. Example: Remove
Education
 from candidate list if you mask school information.
