    4. Now we begin building the actual form by adding form fields. Let\u2019s start with the first field to collect the first and last name of the applicant. Add a Short answer field on your Google forms and provide the question label. Don\u2019t forget to mark it as required by switching the toggle on for Required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    5. Add a new question on the form by clicking on the plus icon<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    6. Now that a new question has been added, let\u2019s modify the type of the question from Multiple choice to Short answer in order to collect the applicant\u2019s email address. Mark the field as required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    8. Add a dropdown field on your form in order to collect for what type of position your applicant is submitting his resume. After selecting Dropdown for the newly added field, all you have to do is to provide the answering options one after the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    9. The most important part is collecting the resume of your applicant. Add a new field and select File upload for the type of field. You will be prompted with information on how your respondents are able to upload their resume. Click continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    10. File upload field has some settings that you can apply: you can allow only specific file types (let\u2019s say you are interested in PDF files only); you can set a maximum number of files (let\u2019s leave it with the default value, 1); you can also set the maximum file size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    11. Now, if you want to go the extra mile, you can customize the theme of the form by clicking on the palette icon. You can change the font and its size, upload an image for the header and change the colors of the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    12. Once you are ready with the form, don\u2019t forget to click on Send button in the header. You have multiple options of sharing your form with the applicants: via email, via link, or you can choose to embed it as HTML. Note:<\/strong> if you have a file upload field on your Google form, you can not embed it as HTML.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
