Create a Question in the Library

If you're a content manager, you can create prescreening questions in the Library. These prescreening questions can then be added to requisitions by recruiters and hiring managers to screen candidates and find the best candidates for a job.

  1. In the Library menu, select Questions.
  2. In the Questions list, click Create Questions. The Questions Details page appears.
  3. Enter a code for the question.
  4. Enter the question in the Question field.
  5. Select the type of answer:

    • Single answer: The candidate selects one answer from a list of choices.

    • Multiple answers: The candidate selects as many answers as applicable from a list of choices.

    • Text answer: The candidate types a brief answer in response to a specific question. Use text questions sparingly; use them where they can allow for expansion of information asked in a previous question.

  6. For a question with a single or multiple answers, decide if you want to display the answers with radio buttons or using a drop-down menu. Then provide possible answers to the question.
  7. For a text answer, indicate the number of lines available for the candidates to provide an answer.
  8. You can associate the question to locations and job fields. Click Add/Modify and select specific locations and job fields. If you select the option Associate with Root, the questions will be available for all locations and all job fields.
  9. If you decide to associate the question to locations or job fields, two options are available:

    • In profile: The question will be available to users who create candidate profiles, and to candidates who are entering their profile in a career section. Questions will be sorted to match the location and job field preferences defined by the candidate.

    • In model: The question will be added to requisitions when recruiters select the Apply Model option in the Prescreening section of a requisition. Questions will be grouped in a model based on the location and job field of the requisition.

  10. Change the status to Active to make the question available for selection in requisitions.
  11. Click Save and Close.
