I am being contacted about a Workday (this is what I do these days) role. It's via an agency trying to pimp me to Wipro - who are doing a Workday UK payroll product for a client - they are saying occasional travel to Reading and Warwick - I don't suppose anyone has a clue on who the end client is? I realise this is a very niche request.

I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

Ah - never thought of that. Needless to say after it being all-fired urgent on Tuesday and me sending them everything they asked for whilst I was still talking to the agent, it's gone dead now. I am currently in a totally soul destroying permie job and I would so love to just walk straight out and go and do the contract gig.Originally posted by quackhandle View PostCould be IBM.

Good luck.
It would be particularly ironic to be stuck in a typical Workday ghosting scenario when applying for a Workday role.Comment

Wouldn't it? It wouldn't be the first time, either. WD has a lot of modules - my specialisation is payroll and absence systems, not recruitment thank goodnessOriginally posted by TheDude View PostGood luck.

If you need any specific advice about Warwick (hotels, restaurants, pubs, facilities) let me know and I will help where I can.
If it is National Grid/Telent or anything on that technology park, be mindful of traffic around there morning/evening rush hours and lunchtimes, it can be painful.Former IPSE member
