When accepting applications for a job posting, you can use this feature if there are specific questions you want to ask upfront. For example, you can ask a software engineer to include their Github profile when applying, or you can ask a designer to add their portfolio link during the application process.

Standard "Default Application Form" for Each Position

You can create your standard application form from the Career Page Settings > Application Form step. If you are not going to add role-specific questions, you can create your single form from this step. All the details on how to create this form are included in this article.

Now, we move on to the step of creating different application forms specifically for roles.

Creating Role-Specific Application Forms

First, we select the Application Form tab from the Career Page Settings.

In this section, if you have not previously created a second application form, you will clearly see only your single application form.

This form (Default Application Form) is a common application form that you will use for all positions.

To create a new application form, you can click the +Application Form button in the upper right corner.

  • For example, you can name this form "Software Engineer Application Form" and add questions specific to this position. You can make these questions mandatory or optional. For instance, you can add questions about years of software experience, previous experience with Microservices Architecture, and willingness to work onsite. After adding and saving the questions, you're done here.

Let's post the job listing.

To prepare and share a job listing, start by clicking on Jobs > Create Job button. All the details on preparing and sharing a job listing from scratch are covered in this article.

Let's now use the Software Engineer Application Form we prepared.

Click the +Create Job button in the upper right corner and you will see a dropdown menu where the window for creating our job listing opens with 'Default Application Form' selected.

By clicking on this menu, for example, for a "Backend Engineer" position, you can select the Software Engineer Application Form you prepared, which you previously specified for engineering candidates, bringing up the specific application form you've set for engineering applicants.

Once you select and save the respective form, your job listing will be published with the chosen question form. To verify, click on your company's career page provided by Hiroo (e.g., companyname.hiroo.co). Locate the relevant listing, such as Backend Engineer. When you open the listing and click on the Apply button, you can see how candidates will view this listing and the application form. You can review the added questions from here.
