Job Applications for Warehouse Hiring
Streamline warehouse hiring with digital data collection
Hiring warehouse staff is often a high-volume, ever-evolving process, and managing stacks of paper job applications can slow you down. Between shifting labor needs, time-sensitive onboarding, and high turnover, warehouse employers need a more efficient solution for collecting and managing job applications.
That’s where digital forms come in. With GoFormz, hiring managers can quickly deploy and manage electronic forms that are easy to complete, track, and process—eliminating the need for printing, scanning, or manual data entry. In this blog, we’ll explore how digital job applications can enhance your warehouse hiring process and highlight key features to use when building your custom job application form with GoFormz.

Features to Use in Your Digital Job Applications
When creating a job application template for warehouse hiring, the following GoFormz features can elevate your form completion process and improve the candidate experience:
Required Fields: Ensure applicants don’t skip critical questions, such as work eligibility or availability, by making form fields required. This improves data completeness and reduces the need for follow-ups.
Conditional Logic: Use Conditional Logic to show or hide sections of your form based on user responses. For example, if an applicant selects “Yes” for “Do you have previous warehouse experience?”, a new section for work history can automatically appear.
Drop Down Menus: Use Drop Down menus with DataSources to allow applicants to select the job they’re applying for, automatically populating job-specific details and questions. This makes it easy to manage multiple job openings within a single form, ensuring applicants only see relevant fields.
Image & File Attachments: Allow candidates to upload photos of IDs, certifications (like forklift operation), or resumes directly from their phone or computer.
Digital Signatures: Add signature fields for applicant consent and verification, helping you maintain legal compliance and document integrity.
Automated Workflows: Automatically route submitted applications to your HR inbox or a hiring manager for quick review. You can also push form data into spreadsheets or HR systems using GoFormz integrations.
Public Forms: With GoFormz, job seekers can complete applications on any device using our Public Forms feature. QR codes or links make it easy to share the form anywhere, allowing anyone to complete a form even without a GoFormz license.
How Other Manufacturers Are Leveraging Digital Data
While job applications play a crucial role in maintaining smooth manufacturing operations, many businesses are also utilizing the same digital features across other departments to streamline additional processes. Here’s how manufacturers are extending these features to do even more:
DiCAN
DiCAN previously relied on paper forms to collect data from its traveling technicians, some of whom were located up to eight hours from the office. This often led to delayed submissions and inefficient processing. By switching to digital forms, DiCAN maintained the familiar look and feel of their existing documents, making adoption seamless. The transition improved communication, accelerated processing, and enhanced data accuracy by utilizing Required Fields and Conditional Logic. Learn more here >
BluePrint Automation
Service engineers needed to improve the way they tracked information about maintenance and repair visits. Before implementing GoFormz, they were using carbon copy forms to track travel details, hours worked, and customer satisfaction. They needed a solution that prevented lost forms, automated calculations, gathered signatures, and automatically emailed copies to multiple parties. With GoFormz, the service engineers enter all their service report details into a digital form, eliminating illegible handwriting and miscalculations. Thanks to automated emails, the form is immediately routed to the service coordinators and the client, making record-keeping easier than ever. Learn more here >
