Besides the Availability Date and Earliest Hire Date, positions must have hiring restrictions.

• A. Not sure
• B. Not applicable
• C. True
• D. False

Answer: (C)

In Workday, a position isn’t governed only by dates like Availability Date and Earliest Hire Date. It also uses hiring restrictions to control who can be considered for that role. These restrictions specify the eligible candidate pools and criteria—such as internal vs external candidates, location, time type, required qualifications, or visa/work authorization—so the recruitment process aligns with policy, compliance, and budget rules. Because these controls determine who is eligible to be hired for the position, it makes sense that hiring restrictions are required in addition to the two dates. Without them, the system could allow candidates who don’t meet policy or regulatory requirements, which is not desirable.
