Administrative Tabs for Form Types
Form Templates are organized by the following types, each represented in balanceTRAK by a tab in the tab header:- Applications — For collecting key information by applicant audience (e.g., Internal, External, International, Non-Exempt)
- Assessments — To gauge the skill level of applicants in job-related tasks, with Pass or Fail scores
- Prescreeners — To screen applicants on basic minimum requirements
- Self-ID Forms — For collecting voluntary information from the Job Seeker on race, gender, disability status, and protected Veteran status
- Background Check Form — To gather additional information from the Job Seeker, as required for a background or credit check
On entry, each tab is similar in content and function; if tasks are specific to one type of form, they are described in this article.
