You can change the language of your Workable interface directly from your profile. This is a personal setting that only affects your view; it does not change the experience for other users on your account.
The Workable user interface is currently available in :
- English (United States)
- English (United Kingdom)
- English (International)
- Danish
- Dutch
- French
- Canadian French
- Greek
- Spanish (Latin American)
With Workable, you can also post jobs to boards worldwide and write job descriptions in any language. With Language Kits, you can provide a fully translated candidate experience. Our system can parse resumes in all languages, and you can only write left-to-right.
Switching the interface to another language
Each user can switch their interface to another supported language individually. You can view the entire Workable interface in the supported language by updating your personal language settings as shown below:
- Go to Personal > Your profile under your Settings.
- Under Language, select the option from the dropdown menu.
- Click Save changes.
From that point on, the Workable interface will appear in the selected language for that user. You can also invite new users to your account and choose the language for the invitation email, so new team members can get started in that language right away.
How your locale affects formatting
Choosing a language also sets your locale, which determines how Workable displays dates, times, numbers, and currencies across the product, including the interface, reports, emails, and notifications. This includes date order, month names, 12- or 24-hour time, number separators, and currency symbol placement.
English is available in three regional options. The examples below show how the same date, time, number, and currency can appear with each option:
| Language option | Date | Time | Number | Currency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| English (United States) | 06/15/26 | 2:30 PM | 1,234.56 | $1,234.56 |
| English (United Kingdom) | 15/06/26 | 14:30 | 1,234.56 | US$1,234.56 |
| English (International) | 15/06/26 | 14:30 | 1.234,56 | 1.234,56 $ |
For existing users who previously had English selected without a regional locale, Workable uses their browser language and locale at sign-in to select the most appropriate English option. Once selected, the language and locale are saved to the user's profile and reused on future sign-ins. You can change them at any time under Language in Your profile.
