Custom fields let you record information about applicants that Enfue doesn’t track by default. Use them in two ways:
- Ask applicants: show the field on your application form, for example Your years of relevant experience to this position or Rate your English proficiency in both verbal and written communication.
- For your team only: keep the field off the form and fill it in yourselves, for example Candidate ranking or Onboarding.

Your custom fields
Add a custom field
- Click Add custom field.
- Enter a Field name.
- Choose a Field type:
- Text: a free-text answer.
- Date: a date.
- Multi select: one or more options from a list you set.
- Star rating: a rating out of 5 stars.
- Tick Show in the application form if applicants should fill it in.
- Click Add.
Applicants’ answers appear on the Additional Info tab of their profile, and you can show each field as a column on the Applicants page.
Keep the application form short. Every extra question means fewer people finish applying, so only ask applicants for what you’ll actually use to decide.
