Applies to: Zoho Recruit – All clients

How it works

In Zoho Recruit you can create a web form that candidates use to submit their profiles and resumes. Recruit generates code you can embed on your website, for example in Zoho Sites, WordPress, Wix or any other website builder that accepts embed or iFrame code.

Step 1: Add the fields to the candidate module

  1. Go to Settings and click Setup.
  2. Under Customisation, go to Modules.
  3. Add or remove fields on the candidate form. The changes sync to the data model automatically.

The video below shows how to add the Terms and Conditions field.

Step 2: Edit the terms and conditions text

To change the terms and conditions content on the candidate profile, hover over the field in the module builder. Click the gear icon that appears and select Edit Properties.

Step 3: Create the web form

When all the fields are on the candidate module, you can add them to your web form. You don't need to write any code. You do need access to your website builder, and you need to know how to add an embedded form or an iFrame to a page. If you don't, give the code to your webmaster.

The video below shows how to create a web form.

Step 4: Make the terms and conditions field mandatory

To stop candidates submitting the form without accepting the terms, make the field mandatory.

  1. On the web form, hover next to the Terms and Conditions field and click the gear icon.
  1. The field properties open. Make sure the Mark field as required checkbox is ticked.

Step 5: Embed the form on your website

Embed the form or iFrame on your website. Follow your website builder's instructions for embedding a form or an iFrame. Or send the code to your webmaster and tell them which page the form should appear on.
