PrintUsing Job Applications
Applications are standardized forms that serve as a way to gather information about people that apply for jobs with your business. You can use an application as a substitute for accepting resumes, or in addition to resumes.
If you're hiring your first employee, you can either buy simple standardized applications at the office supply store, or ask for resumes.
If you decide you want to create a customized application for your business, you must first consider:
- what you should ask on job applications to help you make the best choice
- things that you can't ask under federal and state laws
- other items to include in your applications
