01
Same questions, every candidate
Structured questions on experience, skills, and availability mean applications line up next to each other in a spreadsheet instead of a mailbox.
← All use cases Use Case
Job Application & Hiring Forms
Ask every candidate the same structured questions, take the CV as a file upload, and push each application into whatever you track hiring in.
The problem
Fifty CVs and no way to compare them
Applications arriving as email attachments are impossible to compare and easy to lose. Everyone writes about different things, nothing is in the same order, and screening turns into reading rather than deciding.
How Questionful helps
What you can do with it.
02
Take the files properly
CVs and portfolios upload straight into the form on any paid plan, up to 25 MB each, stored privately and reachable only through signed links.
03
Hand it to your ATS
Every application POSTs to your webhook, including signed links to the uploaded files, so Zapier, Make, or your own service can create the candidate record.

Job Application & Hiring Forms: common questions.
Can candidates upload a CV?
Yes, with a file upload question on a paid plan: 25 MB per file, 2 GB of storage on Standard and 5 GB on Teams. The free plan does not accept respondent uploads.
Can one form cover several open roles?
Yes. Ask which role the candidate wants as a dropdown and route each choice to a section with only that role's questions. One URL to publish and maintain.
Can applications be screened automatically?
Partly. Point values on the closed-set screening questions produce a score on arrival, so the applications that clear the bar are obvious. Free-text answers still need reading.
Does Questionful integrate with an ATS?
By webhook. Every submission POSTs JSON to any endpoint you paste, so an ATS that accepts webhooks, directly or through Zapier or Make, receives the application immediately.
Where is candidate data stored?
On EU infrastructure, encrypted at rest, with public bucket access blocked and downloads through signed links. Responses export to CSV or PDF and can be deleted at any time.
