Pre-screening questions

Short knockout questions added by the employer at the apply step.

Question types

Employers can attach a small number of screening questions to a job. There are three formats:

  • Text — a short answer
  • Yes / No — binary answer
  • Multiple choice — pick one option from a list

Why they exist

These are usually about must-haves: licences, visa status, remote-only constraints. Answering them up-front saves a back-and-forth round.

Skipping required questions blocks submission — the Submit button stays disabled.
