Workday Sales Development Representative SDR interview questions

"Simple and quick process overall. Applied online, and an HR screener followed up the same week. She was great, very thorough, and provided all the details on the position, salary, next steps, and a helpful guide for the upcoming interview rounds. However, the Sales Manager interview was a complete 180 in professionalism. He was clearly unprepared, had likely glanced at my resume minutes before, and asked only basic questions, and was like to the interview. When I asked specifically about Workday products and Workday Sana, he couldn't speak to them, defaulting to AI buzzwords and internal product SKU jargon: And he's a sales manager? Not impressed, especially learning he wasn't even the hiring team's manager. Overall, your experience will heavily depend on who's interviewing you and how knowledgeable they actually are about Workday. Worth noting that following Q4 layoffs in January 2026, they're actively hiring in sales despite declining stock value and rumors of a potential buyout via Reddit.
