Answer surveys with polls

A survey is a form of questions you ask again and again, such as an interview scorecard. To answer it about someone, you make a poll from it on their talent page, their application or a vacancy. The poll keeps the answers, and the survey adds up the answers of all its polls.

Talent pages, application pages and vacancy pages each have a Polls section.

1. Create poll. Make a new poll from one of your surveys.
2. The polls. Each poll shows its survey’s name and how far it is: Completed once its answers are submitted, or how many questions are answered so far, such as 1 of 3 answered. Click a poll to open it, or its bin icon to delete it.

Answer a survey

1. Open the talent, application or vacancy, and scroll to Polls.
2. Click Create poll and choose the survey.
3. The poll opens. Answer the questions: type for text questions, choose one option or several for choice questions. Questions marked * (1) must be answered.
4. Click Submit (3) and confirm.

Answering the Phone screen survey about Kenji Mori's application and submitting it.

Your answers are saved as you go, so you can leave a poll half done and come back to it. About (2) shows what the poll is about; click it to go back to the talent, application or vacancy.

If a mandatory question has no answer, Submit says how many are missing and outlines them. After you submit, the poll is Completed and read-only. Click Edit answers to change it again.

Note

Each person usually makes their own poll, so a scorecard on an application with three interviewers has three polls. The polls in the list all carry the survey’s name: open one to see who answered it in its activity.

To see every poll of a survey and the totals of their answers, open the survey in Surveys. See Polls and results.
