On the one hand, you want your Human Resources department to be able to easily move through the employment application process and select the best talent.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On the other hand, you want talented people to also move easily through the employment application process so that they get past the first filters and reach a point where they can sit an interview with one of your recruiters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>\u00a0A simple online job application form can <em>upgrade<\/em> your entire online job application process and make it easy for your HR representatives to find talent (on the one side) and for job seekers to find jobs suitable for their talent (on the other side).\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Let\u2019s look at the alternatives, though.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It is crystal-clear that paper-based job applications just don\u2019t cut the cake today &#8211; they might make for ugly paper cuts, but that\u2019s pretty much <em>it<\/em> The last thing your HR person needs to be doing is transcribing candidates\u2019 handwritten data into your computer system.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Even more, if you&#8217;re working at a medium-sized or larger enterprise, mountains of paperwork isolate valuable information that needs to be accessible to team members in multiple geographic locations.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>These days, you\u2019re much more likely to have tried asking candidates to apply via email. This option obviously eliminates the pain of a paper form, but doesn\u2019t do much in terms of maximizing your recruiters\u2019 efforts to collect, organize, and streamline information across the entire HR team, as well as across the entire organization. Someone still has to put data into a system.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As for online job boards, we all know they can <em>appear<\/em> to be convenient. However, they are often costly, difficult to customize, and even less useful when it comes to helping you target your ideal candidates.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>More importantly, a job seeker might feel lost in the myriad of online job board boards, cover letter options, and resume formats. All of this just ends up making the job search process complicated, confusing, and inefficient.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Let\u2019s face it, digitalization is taking over the world, and resistance is pretty futile.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A job seeker <em>will<\/em>, inevitably, search for their job online.

And they will expect most of the hiring process to happen online, with a few intermezzos of face-to-face meetings with recruiters and future managers.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Just simple, straightforward data collection for your HR and Recruitment teams.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Online job application forms put the candidate search back in the hands of the one who knows the job vacancy best: you. Once you build an <a href=\"https:\/\/123formbuilder.polarbuildingcleaning.net\/free-form-templates\/Job-Application-Form-224445\/\">online job application form<\/a> and publish it on your own company website, you can attract candidates who already have an affinity for your company.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>What\u2019s more, your company\u2019s ability to digitize the recruitment process will enhance candidates\u2019 confidence in the future of your business &#8211; so you have all the reasons in the world to move your job application forms online.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In conclusion, an online job application form <em>is<\/em> your best option.

And creating them should also be easy. Here are our simple tips to check out before you dive into\u00a0 writing your job application form:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-make-everything-crystal-clear\">Make everything crystal clear<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It doesn\u2019t matter how large or small your company is &#8211; people are submitting these forms in the hope they will land a job and they will be reluctant to do so if it takes them too long.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Also, you want to make sure you have good quality candidates. If your form isn\u2019t easy to understand you\u2019ll get candidates that should have applied for a different role.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-keep-it-as-short-as-you-can\">Keep it as short as you can<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>According to a study ran by <a href=\"https:\/\/officevibe.com\/blog\/12-recruiting-stats\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Officevibe<\/a>, 60% of the applicants dropped out of the application process because it was too long.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Yes, ask your questions and yes, don\u2019t skimp on the details that set you apart &#8211; but don\u2019t make this form too lengthy. There will be plenty of time in future recruitment stages for you to ask the questions that require extensive answers. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-make-it-gdpr-friendly-eu\">Make it GDPR-friendly (EU)<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you are based in any of the EU countries or you think your candidates might be applying from the EU, GDPR is a legal issue and not just an option.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center btn btn-primary is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"\/signup.html\">Create GDPR-compliant job application forms online<\/a><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Scary, right? I mean, most of us aren\u2019t lawyers, so what can we do to make sure laws aren\u2019t being broken? Well, you can always consult an expert. Before you do that though, you can start with these things.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Use a data collection tool that is GDPR-compliant (more on how 123FormBuilder does this <a href=\"https:\/\/123formbuilder.polarbuildingcleaning.net\/gdpr-compliance\/\">here<\/a>)<\/li>\r\n<li>Ensure that your forms are GDPR-compliant. This means that you ask for your users\u2019 explicit consent to collect and use their personal data, that you keep the personal data collection to a minimum, and that you are very clear on why you are collecting their personal information (and how you are using it).<\/li>\r\n<li>Create a form that fits your company values. For instance, if you want to seem like\u00a0 a friendly, young company, you might want to include language that triggers this type of reaction in your potential job candidates.<\/li>\r\n<li>Be polite and courteous. Even the people who don\u2019t go on to work for you will still talk about you. So it\u2019s important to leave a positive impression. A great way to do this is to leave everyone who submits the form a short Thank You note (via email or by redirecting them to a <a href=\"https:\/\/123formbuilder.polarbuildingcleaning.net\/blog\/5-thank-you-messages-to-use-on-your-web-forms\/\">\u201cThank You\u201d page<\/a>). Doing this will show potential candidates that you <em>care<\/em> and it will help them confirm the form has gone through and reached you.<\/li>\r\n<li>Create a design that sets you apart. You want to give talented candidates the impression they are submitting their form to a company that actually cares about their branding, as well as their employees. Personalizing it to match your brand reinforces the idea that you\u2019re a serious company that&#8217;s going places.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-should-a-job-application-form-include\"><strong>What should a job application form include?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>What questions should you include in your job application form?
