Actual exam question for Workday's Workday Pro HCM Core exam
Question #: 1
Topic #: 7
[All Workday Pro HCM Core Questions]

Scenario:

A new supervisory organization has been created. The staffing model has been assigned so that there is no limit on the number of jobs that are filled.

The Worker Type available for staffing in this organization is for workers who are paid by a third party.

What business process do you use to staff for this worker type?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The correct answer is B -- Contract Contingent Worker.

In Workday, Contingent Workers are individuals who perform services for the organization but are not on the organization's payroll (they are paid by a third party). To bring a contingent worker into the system, the appropriate business process is Contract Contingent Worker.

This business process mirrors the Hire Employee process but is designed for contingent workforce management. It captures key details such as vendor, contract dates, location, job profile, and supervisory organization. The process is typically initiated when the organization wants to assign contingent workers under a supervisory org for project or temporary work.

The Hire Employee process (option A) is used for direct employees only, while options C and D are termination or ending processes, not staffing ones.

B) Contract Contingent Worker is the way to go. Anything else would be like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.

Hmm, I was thinking A) Hire Employee, but that doesn't seem to fit the scenario of a third-party paid worker. Gotta go with B.

I’m confused because I thought we only used A) Hire Employee for direct hires, but this scenario is different with third-party workers.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about hiring processes in a similar question. Could it be A) Hire Employee?

B. Contract Contingent Worker. That's gotta be it. The scenario is clear that these are third-party workers, so we need to use the process for bringing on a contingent worker, not a regular employee.

Okay, let me think this through. Since there's no limit on the number of jobs, we're not ending anything. And the workers are paid by a third party, so we're not hiring them directly. I'm going to go with B, Contract Contingent Worker.

B) Contract Contingent Worker is the correct answer. The scenario describes a worker type that is paid by a third party, which aligns with the "Contingent Worker" option.

I'm pretty confident that B is the right answer here. The key details are that these workers are paid by a third party, so we need to use the contingent worker process rather than hiring them directly.

D) End Contingent Worker Contract? Really? That's like trying to staff a position that doesn't even exist. B is the only logical answer here.

I'm a little confused here. Is this about hiring a new employee or ending an existing contract? I'm not sure which business process to use.

I think the answer is B. We're dealing with a worker type that is paid by a third party, so we need to use the process for contracting a contingent worker.
