Save hours of sorting through candidates with this professionally drafted Employment Application form.
Some employers invite candidates to submit a curriculum vitae (CV) or resumes with a covering letter. Unless creativity is a requirement of the job this will make it difficult to sort the wheat from the chaff!
A professional employment application form will have the following benefits:
-
You, the employer, not the candidate, determines what information is to be provided and you can ensure you get all the relevant information you want.
-
All applicants provide the same information in a standardised format. This enhances the fairness of the data collection process and makes it easier for you to make comparisons between candidates.
-
Your company will look professional and well organised.
-
Many people find it easier to answer specific questions than to prepare an application without any guidelines. Unless "preparing an application" is a relevant job requirement it is probably an unnecessary burden on applicants who are likely to employ someone else to prepare the application anyway.
-
An applicants ability to complete a standard application form accurately and to follow the instructions may give you a good indication of their suitability for the job.
-
This form will be a very useful record throughout the employee's engagement.
Professional Application forms can be used in a number of different ways. Here are three approaches:
-
Your job advertisement can ask people to request an application form which can then be provided along with the job description and personal profile.
-
You can send an application form to applicants that you have short listed before you make the final selection of applicants to interview.
-
You can provide an application either when you arrange the interview or when people arrive for the interview.
