They are useful when you want to ask job-specific questions that are not part of the default field list.

Examples:

  • Why are you interested in this role?

  • Are you willing to relocate?

  • What is your expected joining date?

  • Do you have experience using Bubble?

  • Upload your portfolio or sample work.

  • Rate your communication skills from 1 to 10.
