You can assign questionnaires to a candidate in Activity Management. It is not essential to send the questionnaire to the candidate. As a member of the support team for the relevant succession plan
,
you can complete the questionnaire yourself using the responses you elicit from the candidate during a telephone interview.
This enables you to put exactly the same questions to several candidates and then evaluate the different responses automatically using the
Ranking by Questionnaire
function. Configuration settings for the questionnaires enable you to specify whether questionnaires are displayed after completion or whether they can only be displayed by the responsible succession planner.
