How to customise your application forms

This guide will show you how to customise your application forms.

When creating your vacancy in the new ATS, you have the option to gather applications using Schrole Connect.

Schrole Connect is the quick apply function. When you opt to use Schrole Connect, the candidates applies with a simple click and their profile automatically informs their application.

This speeds up the application process for candidates as they don’t have to re-enter their career history when filling in your application. They do it once and press submit.

The only additional bits of information a candidate will need to fill in is your Custom Questions and, if you request, supply a Cover Letter.

Depending on the job role you are looking to fill, you can customise the application form to determine what information will be pulled from the candidate’s profile.
