Assigning Basic Qualifications Questions to a Specific Job

How to assign knock out questions to a job

Updated over 2 months ago

Overview:

Basic Qualifications are custom knockout questions that you can ask your candidates when they apply to jobs. In BrightMove, qualification questions can be configured to appear on all jobs or only specific jobs. The "Show on Portal" setting determines whether a question appears across all jobs listed on the portal or can be selectively assigned. In this article, we will go through the process of assigning BQ's to specific jobs rather than posting to all jobs on the portal.

Assignment:

When you are creating a job for the first time, at any point you can choose to assign specific BQ's to this job. Specifically, BQ's that are not already posted onto the Portal. To avoid a question being applied to all jobs unintentionally, you should deselect the "Show on Portal" option when creating the qualification question. Once a job has submittals, you can no longer add BQ's to that job, so it is important that you add the BQ's when you are creating the job. In cases where a job already has submittals and you need to add qualification questions, you would need to recreate the job position.

To do this you can follow these steps:

  1. From the job profile, click on the More button in the top right. Select Basic Qualifications.

  2. A new page will open. From here, click Add Questions in the top right.

  3. A drop down menu will appear that reads Search Questions. Any available questions will be listed here, simply click on the one you wish to assign and then click Assign. You can repeat this process to add more if you wish.

Keep in mind that only BQ's that did not have the selection for Show on Portal selected can be assigned to specific Jobs. If the "Show on Portal" option is enabled for a question, it will automatically appear on every job. Once a qualification question is unmarked as "Show on Portal," it will no longer appear on any jobs and will need to be manually assigned to the desired jobs.

Best Practices and Tips:

  • Always double-check the "Show on Portal" setting when creating a new qualification question.

  • Plan the assignment of questions before jobs receive submittals to avoid recreating job postings.
