Select either Step 1 or Step 2 to control when the question will be visible to the applicant during the application process.
- Applicants will only see questions labeled as Step 1 during their initial application process. If your organization wants to collect additional application sections not yet collected, an invitation can be sent to the applicant to invite them to complete Step 2. The applicant will follow the instructions in the invitation to access and complete Step 2.
