TABLE OF CONTENTS
The applicant form is a type of questionnaire through which applicants submit their application data.
The part of the applicant form that contains questions for the candidates is colloquially often also called the application form.
You can configure and optimize the intro page, form and confirmation page according to your needs. This creates a user-friendly and authentic application experience that not only efficiently manages the application process but also puts your company in the best light.
Add Panorama Image
A panorama image for the intro page, form and confirmation page can be uploaded by clicking the button Click for Image Upload.
The display of the panorama image depends on the type of job advertisement template. If you use a job advertisement template of the Liquid Design type with the applicant form and no image is entered in the other tabs of the questionnaire, the panorama image will be displayed across the full width of the screen on the confirmation page.
