Custom fields

Managing your organisation's shared field library.

Custom fields you want to reuse across multiple forms are managed under Settings > Custom Fields, split into two tabs: Application Form and Basic Information (fields used on job details rather than the application form).

Adding a field

1. Choose the right tab for where the field will be used.
2. Select + Add Field.
3. Choose a Response Type: Short Text, Email, Phone, Long Text, File Upload, URL, Dropdown, Checkbox, Number, Date, Multi-select, Repeatable, Photo, Video, or Content Block.
4. Give it a Field Label, and turn on Required if it should always need an answer.
5. For Basic Information fields, choose a Form Section so it's filed under the right part of the job form.
6. For Dropdown, Checkbox, or Multi-select fields, list your choices under Field Options, separated by commas, the first one becomes the default.
7. Check the Field Preview, then select Save.

Repeatable fields

Choose the Repeatable type when candidates might need to answer something more than once, for example previous employers. Give it a Repeatable Section Name, then add each sub-field that should repeat together, with its own label, type, and required setting.

Removing a field

Select the trash icon next to a field to delete it. You'll be asked to confirm first.

Once a field exists in this library, it's available to insert into your application form templates without rebuilding it each time, see Building an application form.
