What if a tech job paid $95 per hour, required no certification, and was in such high demand that candidates started faking their experience just to get interviews? (YouTube Link in the Comments)

In this video, we uncover one of the most overlooked careers in enterprise software, Workday consulting. Chris Schwenk, an 18-year tech recruiter, breaks down exactly why Workday careers are one of the most underserved and highest-paying specialties in enterprise technology right now, why the talent pool cannot grow the way AWS or Python did, and the three real paths in when the certification is literally locked behind employment.

Through a real recruiting story, we also explore how fake candidates are trying to exploit this opportunity, what actually happened during a live interview, and the legitimate paths to building a career in Workday.

What you will learn:

✅ Why Workday is mission-critical, proprietary, and perpetual, the exact recipe that produces the rates

✅ Why partners bill $200 to $400 per hour for the same skill set that earns $95/hr on contract

✅ Why the Workday certification cannot be earned without already working at Workday or a partner firm

✅ How the locked certification creates a talent shortage that has lasted for years and shows no sign of ending

✅ The 5 Workday career families: HCM Functional, Financials, Integrations, Reporting, Security and Admin

✅ Which career family is the accessible entry point and which one is where the senior rates concentrate

✅ The 3 real paths in: pivot from inside your current company, join a partner firm, or bridge from SAP or Oracle
