Trusty Recruitment Tool

The job application form is known to be the most effective tool there is for recruiters. A job application form is a standardized document with a formal layout that enumerates/depicts the specific information that job candidates must provide for. The contents of job application forms may vary depending on the kind of information that the company wants to know before considering a job applicant for initial interview.

Some hiring managers prefer to craft an application form that asks for specific details on the applicant’s background history, while some prefer to stick to the basics. Whatever the recruiter’s preference, there are kinds of information that, more often than not, must essentially be present in job application forms:

• Name
• Age/Birth date
• Address
• Spouse’s or family’s information
• Job applicant’s contact information (telephone number, mobile number, e-mail address)
• Educational history (name of schools, addresses, academic awards if any)
• Work/Employment history (name of company, supervisor, address of company, position held, salary history, etc.)
• Name and contact information of references
• Confirmation that all the information listed are true to the applicant’s knowledge
• Signature

 

Clearly, a job application form can ask for any relevant information that a recruiter deem necessary upon considering an applicant’s eligibility for a job position.

Advantages of a Job Application Form

Speeds Up Selection

The easy-to-read format of a job application form allows the recruiter to take a quick scan on the job candidate’s qualifications. This allows him or her to save time by doing away with poring through long and complicated resumes just to gain a pertinent information.

Allows for Objective Comparisons

Due to the standardized format, the items/information with which all the candidates are asked to provide for are similar. Therefore, their capabilities and qualifications can be assessed in an objective way since the recruiter cannot fall victim to the flowery appeals of some resumes.

Lessens the Possibility of Being Given False Information

The fact that most (if not all) application forms are made to be filled out on the spot makes it more difficult for job candidates to make up false information just to align his or her character and background with the requirements of the job position applied for.

Legally Binding

In the event that you hire an applicant based on false information regarding their qualifications, as long as the false information are written on the job application form, then any employer can terminate the employment of such deceitful employee, without fearing the labor courts and tribunals. This is so because this form is a valid and formal document that can be used as evidence in labor courts.
