What is Recrur's application form, and how is it used?

To make applying to a Recrur job ad easier and enable candidates to submit their applications directly into the Recrur software, Recrur offers the option to create an application form. The application form allows candidates to conveniently enter their contact information and apply for a specific job (instead of, for example, sending a separate email upon seeing the job posting).

When creating an application form, it doesn't matter whether the Recrur job ad was previously created as an image or manually. If you create an application form, it will automatically add a "Apply" button to the Recrur job ad, which directs candidates to the application form. This button is generated automatically when both the job ad and the application form are active.

You can also use and create the application form separately from the job ad. To do this, simply share the specific application form link, rather than the job posting link.

To create an application form:

1. Go to the profile of the job in Recrur for which you want to create an application form:

2. Click on the option that says "Please choose which job ad you would like to create":

3. From the dropdown list that appears, select "Recrur job application form"

4. Begin filling out the form. If you have previously created any application forms, you can use them to pre-fill the new application form and make changes as needed to match the requirements of the new competition:

Next, you can choose the language of the application form and the application source.

In this context, the application source refers to how candidates who apply through this created form will be categorized in terms of their source (i.e., where they came from). When creating the form, you can select one or multiple sources. Candidates who apply through this form will have the option to choose the source(s) through which they found the job posting or learned about the job offer. For example:

6. Next, fill in the application form's title, introduction (such as an introduction to the company and/or the job), email content that the candidate will receive after applying, etc.

If you wish to format the added text more extensively (such as adding links or using bold text, etc.), you can find instructions for that here!

6. If desired, you can add additional questions/options to the application form to gather more supplementary information about the candidate. To do this, simply add questions to the "Create a Questionnaire" section, which is also located within the application form creation view.

By default, there are two questions there, but you can remove them, modify them, and/or add entirely new questions:

When a candidate answers additional questions during the application process, their responses/uploaded files will appear on their profile so that recruiters can view them.
