A rule-based Job Application definition enables Workday to present different Possible Next Steps according to data on the associated job requisition. The rule identifies the applicable requisition population and allows Ready for Hire directly from Interview only when the requisition satisfies the contingent-worker condition. Employee requisitions continue through their separately configured stages and do not receive the same direct transition.

The routing belongs in the Job Application definition because that process controls candidate-stage movement. Configuring a condition directly on Ready for Hire, as described in option A, does not establish the appropriate rule-based process definition. The Interview subprocess itself is also not the correct level for differentiating the overall Job Application routing. Option D modifies an unrelated Screen-to-Interview transition.

This design allows one recruiting framework to support different worker populations while preventing an unauthorized shortcut for employee hiring. Workday evaluates the rule against the candidate’s associated Job Requisition and exposes the applicable next-stage choices at runtime.
