Why Certn + Workday?

Certn for Workday helps you move faster, without layering on more tools or manual work. It’s screening that just works, right where your team already does.

Checks trigger automatically

When a candidate hits your configured background check stage, Certn launches the right check instantly using event-based logic. No batch polling or manual triggers.

Live status updates, synced to Workday

We push real-time updates directly into Workday using REST APIs, so your team always knows where things stand without leaving your ATS.

Enterprise-grade security and scalability

Our integration uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication and supports permissioned access, audit trails, and status mapping for clean handoffs and full visibility.
