At FranchiseLab, we understand that every franchisor's needs are unique. To cater to this diversity, FranchiseLab Recruiter offers the flexibility of adding Custom Contact Fields. This feature enables you to tailor the contact information fields to suit your specific recruitment requirements. Whether it's tracking the 'Lead Source' or capturing unique candidate qualifications, Custom Contact Fields enhance your data management capabilities.
Using custom questions in the Information Request requires a Professional or Enterprise Plan. You can contact us to find out more about our plans.
