Templates include all fields, ordering, and configuration. ## Supplementary Forms Sometimes you need additional information after the initial application. Supplementary forms let you: 1. **Create a form** with custom questions. 2. **Send it to candidates** via email with a unique link. 3. **Candidates fill it out** without needing a HireBee account. 4. **Responses are attached** to the candidate's profile. ### Use Cases - Technical assessment questions - Background check authorizations - Reference contact details - Work eligibility documentation - Skills self-assessment ## Visibility Controls Form fields can be restricted to specific team roles or individual users. This is useful for sensitive fields like salary expectations or internal assessments.
