Permissions Note: All actions in this section require the appropriate permissions to complete. If you are unable to perform any of the following actions, contact your Company administrator.
→ See 124 - User-Roles for more information on permissions.
Draft Versioning Note: Any changes made to a published Application Form — including adding, editing, deleting, or rearranging questions and sections — will automatically trigger a new draft version. The live version remains active until the draft is explicitly published.
→ See 111 - Positions for more information on draft versioning.
How Do I Create Application Form Questions?
There are three ways to build an Application Form:
Option 1 — Ask Rover
Click the "Ask Rover" button within the Application Form tab. Rover will reference the requirements configured in the Position Details tab to automatically generate an appropriate set of Application Form Questions for the position.
This is the fastest way to build an Application Form. For best results, ensure the Position's requirements are fully configured before using Rover.
→ See 115 - Rover-AI for more information on how Rover generates content for Application Forms.
Option 2 — Import from Another Position
Click the "Import Application Form" button to copy the Application Form Questions from another Position in your organization into the current one.
- A list of all Positions within your organization will be displayed
- Select the Position you want to import questions from from and click "Ok"
- By default, the option "Keep questions that already exist for the current position" is selected — this preserves any questions already added to the form you are working on. When checked, imported questions will populate after the last question in the last section of the Application Form.
- To replace the entire Application Form with the imported one, deselect this option before clicking "Ok"
Note: If no Positions appear in the import list, your organization does not yet have any Positions with existing Application Forms. Build the current form manually first, then it can be used as a source for future imports.
Option 3 — Build Manually
Build the Application Form from scratch by adding sections and questions directly in the editor.
A minimum of one section containing at least one question is required. To add a question:
- Navigate to the Application Form tab of the Position details page
- Navigate to the section you want to add a question to
- Click the "Add a Question" button at the bottom of the section
A drawer will open with two options: select from the Question Library or create a Custom Question.
Question Library — select from a set of pre-built questions organized into four categories. See the Question Library section below for the full list of available questions.
Custom Question — configure the following fields:
- Question Section — the section the question will be added to. Defaults to the section where the "Add a Question" button was clicked.
- Question Title — the label for the question. Visible to both the candidate and the end-user.
- Question Text — the candidate-facing question text. Visible to both the candidate and the end-user.
- Question Type — select from the available question types. After selecting a type, input the answer choices and use the checkboxes to designate which answers are preferred answers. Preferred answers are used by the Screening Question and Lead Score configurations.
→ See 104 - Application-Form-Questions for full details on question types and configuration options.
