- Show Workday & Excel mastery with concrete artifacts: Upload a short (2‑3 min) video or PDF walkthrough of a real Workday data load you performed—highlight formulas, pivot tables, and data validation rules you built in Excel to cleanse and map the data before import. Include screenshots of the import log and error‑resolution steps to prove end‑to‑end competence.
- Tailor your cover letter to Jonas’s collaborative culture: Reference a specific project where you partnered with senior leaders or cross‑functional teams to resolve a HRIS issue. Use the company’s language (“building relationships,” “customer‑focused”) and quantify the outcome (e.g., “reduced onboarding cycle time by 15 %”).
- Prepare scenario‑based answers that demonstrate composure under pressure: Interviewers will probe how you handle system outages or data‑integrity crises. Draft a STAR story that outlines the incident, the immediate actions you took (e.g., rolling back a Workday change, communicating status to executives), the metrics you monitored, and the final resolution time.
- Create a “Remote‑Ready” work sample kit: Assemble a Git‑style repository (or Google Drive folder) with:
- Research market rates for remote HRIS analysts in Mexico and negotiate with data: Use sites like Glassdoor, Payscale, and Hired to benchmark base salary + benefits (e.g., health, internet stipend). In the negotiation call, present a 3‑point range (low‑mid‑high) and justify the “mid” figure with your Workday certifications, Excel automation experience, and proven cost‑savings projects. Offer a performance‑based milestone (e.g., “first‑year ROI of $X from process automation”) to strengthen your case.
