Workday Recruiting uses cookies to track a candidate’s user session on the external career site. The cookie solely contains a  private ID that is used to look up a user's session from their device to our external career site servers.  The technology we use is called Redis Cache.  The cookie has no actual personal details (session or cache information) in it.  Additionally, 3rd party cookies are not used.

The candidate application data is kept on the career site servers and sent en-mass back to the Workday tenant when the user clicks submit on the last step.  Once the user hits submit, we make POST requests with that data to multiple REST end-points sending the job application back to the Workday tenant). The system will clear out / time out after 60 minutes of inactivity (for records that were not submitted back to Workday)
