Why we read it this way (8)

The role is listed as US-based with remote work options but no specific metro or state is identified — CBSA and state fields are left blank.

The 5+ years requirement is for Workday HCM overall; the 3+ years is specifically for Workday Compensation configuration and administration.

A Bachelor's degree is listed but the JD explicitly accepts 'equivalent professional experience,' so no minimum degree is flagged as a hard requirement.

Workday Payroll and Benefits appear under 'Working knowledge of related Workday modules' — a softer framing within the requirements section — and are treated as preferred.

Workday Advanced Compensation (including long-term incentive plans / stock administration) is explicitly called 'preferred' in the JD.

Experience supporting global compensation programs across multiple regions and currencies is explicitly noted as 'a plus' and is therefore omitted from the skills list as it names no distinct tool.

This posting is listed via Jobgether on behalf of an unnamed partner company; the actual employer is not disclosed.
