# Choose what candidates send with their application

In the Application form section of a job offer, ask for a CV, a cover letter, links to social profiles and answers to your own questions.

## Open the application form

1. Open “Job offers” in the menu.
2. Click “Add new” for a new job offer, or open a job offer and click “Edit”.
3. Go to the “Application form” section.

## Ask for files

Under “Additional files to attach”, turn on:

- “Require CV”: candidates can't apply without a CV. They attach a file or give a link to it.
- “Require cover letter”: candidates can't apply without a cover letter file.

With both switches off, candidates can apply with their name and e-mail address only.

## Ask for links

Under “Additional required social links”, turn on each profile you want to see: YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, Behance, Dribbble or GitHub. The application form then asks for a link to each of them, and candidates can't apply without these links.

## Ask your own questions

1. Under “Additional questions for the candidate”, click “Add a question”.
2. Type the question, on one line.
3. Add as many questions as you need.

To change the order, drag a question by its handle. To remove one, click its bin. An empty question is not saved.

Click “Save changes” or “Create job offer” at the bottom of the form.

## Where you see what candidates sent

On the application page, in the “Application” tab: the CV or cover letter shown on the page, the links and the answers to your questions. See [What an application page shows](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/read-an-application-page).

On the job offer page, the “Application form” block sums up what you ask for. Click “Show questions” to read the questions.


## Common questions

### Can I change the questions after people have applied?

Yes. If you reword a question, the answers already given stay, under the new wording. If you remove a question, the answers already given to it no longer show. New candidates answer the questions as they are now.

### Must candidates answer every question?

No. The form shows a field for each question, but a candidate can send it without answering.
