Can’t reset NVIDIA Careers password — “Failed to initiate password reset, please contact administrator”

Hi NVIDIA team,

I’m trying to reset the password for my NVIDIA Careers (Workday) account, but the reset flow errors immediately with:

“Failed to initiate password reset, please contact administrator.”

Details

  • Email on the account: david.sung@west.cmu.edu

  • Where it happens: Careers at NVIDIA → Sign InForgot Password

  • What I’ve tried: Edge/Chrome/Firefox, cleared cache & cookies, incognito, Windows 10 desktop.
    Also tried Create Account (it says the email already exists), so I’m stuck.

  • Screenshots attached for reference.

Request
Could a moderator or NVIDIA recruiting/Workday admin check my account and help trigger a password reset or advise next steps? Thank you!

Hi there @david.sung and welcome to the NVIDIA developer forums.

Please check this messaage:

and the last one in the same thread for more information on the Workday Password reset process.

I think that might already help you.

Thanks!

Thanks, Markus. I saw that message/thread. My issue is different:

When I click Forgot Password, I immediately get a red banner saying “Failed to initiate password reset, please contact administrator.” No email is sent. I’ve waited >30 minutes, tried <5 times today, used Edge/Chrome/Firefox, incognito, and cleared cache on Windows 10. Create Account also says the email already exists.

Could someone check/unlock my candidate profile and manually trigger a reset? My account email is david.sung@west.cmu.edu. Happy to DM any details. Screenshots attached. Thank you!

I’ll see what we can do.

ki am getting the same iss please advise…

Can you soirt this asap please? Andrew

Hi @andy.g.hamilton and welcome to the NVIDIA Developer Forums.

Please first of all follow the instruction in the thread I linked above. There are time-outs involved that can seem like access is broken. Just try to be patient.

Thanks.

I still get this - could you just reset or delete the account - ah93@zepler.org.uk. Thanks Andrew

Please could you delete the ah93@zepler.uk account and I will set it up from scratch. Please do it asap. Please let me know when it has been done. Thanks. Andrew
