Workday Pro Talent and Performance Workday-Pro-Talent-and-Performance Exam Questions
Question 1
A manager wants to request feedback about a worker.
They select a locked feedback template to initially populate questions. What can the manager do?
Answer : B
Feedback templates in Workday can be delivered as locked or editable.
A locked feedback template ensures consistency across the organization, meaning the manager cannot add, edit, or delete questions.
Only the default questions included in the template may be used.
Options A, C, and D would apply if the template were editable, but they are not possible in a locked template.

Workday Pro Talent & Performance certification study material: ''Locked templates prevent managers from adding or editing questions. Only the delivered questions are used.''
Question 2
An organization wants to assign the same employee on two succession plans.
What task should they use to complete this?
Answer : D
The Manage Succession Plan task allows administrators or managers to assign employees to one or more succession plans, including assigning the same employee to multiple plans.
Incorrect options:
A . Create Succession Pool creates a new pool, unrelated to assigning to multiple plans.
B . Move Succession Plan used for plan reorganization, not assigning individuals.
C . Copy Succession Plan Candidates duplicates candidate lists from one plan to another, but is not the standard method for assignment.

Question 3
You want each talent partner to create their own talent pools and be able to manually add or remove pool members.
If they choose to create a pool that is not shared with others, what type of talent pool will they create?
Answer : B
Static Talent Pools allow manual addition and removal of members.
Private means the pool is only visible to the creator and not shared with others.
Therefore, a Private Static Talent Pool lets talent partners create their own pools, manage membership manually, and keep them unshared.
Incorrect options:
Dynamic Pools membership is controlled by saved searches, not manual additions.
Restricted Pools visibility is limited to certain groups but still shared, not completely private.

Pro certification training: ''Private Static Pools allow personal management of membership without sharing.''
Question 4
Your organization launches talent reviews for the entire organization on an annual basis. You created a new Talent Lead security group to initiate the talent review event.
What do you need to modify to enable this configuration?
Answer : A
This scenario involves enabling a new security group (Talent Lead) to initiate Talent Review events in Workday. To achieve this, you need to configure both the business process security and domain security that govern Talent Reviews.
Launch Talent Reviews business process security policy
This policy controls who has permission to initiate the Talent Review event.
Without updating this, the new Talent Lead group cannot start the review process.
Talent Review domain security policy
This policy governs access to Talent Review objects, such as templates, review events, grids, and attributes.
Without updating domain security, even if the group can launch the process, they will not be able to view or interact with the talent review itself.
Incorrect alternatives
Option B (Launch Talent Reviews only): This would allow the group to initiate the process, but they would lack access to view or work with the reviews.
Option C (Talent Review business process security policy): There is no generic ''Talent Review business process''; the correct one is ''Launch Talent Reviews.''
Option D (Talent Review business process + domain security): Misstated. The business process in question is ''Launch Talent Reviews,'' not a general Talent Review business process.
Therefore, the correct answer is to update both the Launch Talent Reviews business process security policy and the Talent Review domain security policy so that the Talent Lead group has both initiation rights and access permissions.
Reference
Workday Pro Talent & Performance Certification Guide -- Security in Talent Reviews: Explains that both business process security and domain security must be configured for security groups responsible for launching talent reviews.
ERP Cloud Training -- Talent Review Security: Notes that business process security grants initiation rights, while domain security controls access to objects and review content.
Workday Community Documentation -- Talent Review Setup: Confirms that both the Launch Talent Reviews business process policy and the Talent Review domain security policy must be modified when a new security group is added to initiate reviews.
Question 5
What do you use a talent pool for?
Answer : C
Talent Pools are designed to group employees for development and succession planning purposes.
They help organizations track readiness, identify high potentials, and prepare workers for future roles.
Incorrect options:
A . Organizing by hierarchy is done via Supervisory Organizations, not talent pools.
B . A short list of ranked candidates is closer to Succession Planning, not talent pools.
D . Assessing readiness for job profiles (including external candidates) is Succession Planning, not pools.
Workday Talent Management Guide: ''Talent pools are collections of workers for development and growth opportunities.''

Question 6
Refer to the following scenario to answer the question below.
An enterprise creates organizational goals that include the following criteria:
The organizational goals span five years.
Workers can align their individual goals with the organizational goals.
Workers must provide a description for each individual goal.
Each individual goal must fall within one of three groupings.
Workers' individual goals fall within one of three groups: Innovation, Financial, or Productivity.
Where do you configure the groupings?
Answer : B
In the scenario, each worker's goal must fall under one of three groupings: Innovation, Financial, Productivity.
These groupings are set up using Goal Categories.
The Maintain Goal Categories task allows administrators to define these categories and enforce categorization for goal entry.
Incorrect options:
Configure Goals in Review section affects reviews, not groupings.
Configure Organization Goals section applies to enterprise-level goals, not categorization.
Configure Talent Tags task defines tags used for reporting, not enforced groupings.
Workday Goal Management admin setup: ''Use Maintain Goal Categories to define groupings for goals.''
Workday Pro Talent & Performance certification material: Goals must be categorized via categories, not talent tags.
Question 7
You want to launch a performance review with calibration. The Talent Administrator would like to verify that all performance reviews are complete before calibration launches.
How do you configure the business process to meet this requirement?
Answer : A
When using calibration with performance reviews, Workday requires reviews to be completed first before calibration begins.
The correct configuration is to insert the ''Await Calibration Completion'' service step into the Complete Manager Evaluation for Performance Review business process.
This ensures that calibration will not launch until all manager evaluations are complete.
Other options:
To Do step only generates a reminder, not an enforced process dependency.
Shared Participation step on Launch Calibration configures collaboration for calibration itself, not sequencing.
Update Performance Review Rating step controls how ratings are updated, not workflow dependencies.
