Building a custom application form

On our Business and Recruiter plans, you can add custom questions to the application of any of your Dropboards. Every question asked becomes a candidate attribute when they submit the form.

For embedded Dropboards or your white-labeled portal

If you are embedding jobs on your existing website, go to "Dropboards" and then either create your first board or hit "Edit" on an existing one.

If you are using Dropboard's white-labeled portal (for Recruiter plan customers), click on "Clients" and then "Portal Designer."


Setting up your form

Find the top navigation and select "Application Form" like so:


Look to the right, choose "Custom Fields" and then click "Add Custom Fields."


A form editor will show up. Choose field types from the left to add to your form.


You can reorder fields by dragging the "handle" of any field:

When you're finished hit "Save" to close the form editor. When you're done editing your other Dropboard settings, hit "Save" to finalize everything.
