      • Free-Text Response: When this type of attribute is selected, the Interview Feedback Attributes will be utilized.
      • List Select: When this type of attribute is selected, the configured list select options will override and replace anything previously configured for the question. A modal will then appear where you will confirm your selection before seeing this read-only selection.
        • Important Note: When the question type is selected, List Select Candidate Attributes will automatically fill that question type answers. These answer input fields cannot be edited.
    8. If applicable, tie a relevant Candidate Attribute to this question.
    9. Select a Theme. Options include:
      • Thumbs: This lists 2 answers with a thumbs up and a thumbs down.
        • Note: If a List Select Candidate Attribute is selected for this question, then this option will be hidden if it has more than 2 options.

When a candidate responds to this question via SMS, a typed-out response reflecting one of these options will be accepted. 
        • Note: If a List Select Candidate Attribute is selected for this question, then this option will be hidden if it has more than 10 options.
      • Open-Ended Answer: This will provide a text box for the recipient to enter their response (max of 320 characters).

      • Conditional Logic: This will allow you to add conditional logic based on recipient responses, allowing you to create a more tailored experience.
      • Allow Multi-Select: This will be available for Text themed questions and allows recipients to enter more than one response. When selected, a Maximum Responses field will display where you will enter the value that reflects the maximum number of responses.
      • Make Question Required: This will be available for any question and allows you to mark a specific question as required. This will prevent evaluators from skipping a certain question when completing an evaluation.
      • Hide Labels: This will be available for Thumbs, Emoji, and Star themed questions and allows you to hide the answer labels associated with the selected theme. 
    13. Click Confirm in the bottom right corner of the drawer.
    14. The question will then display within the Questions section. Click the plus icon after the newly-added question and repeat steps #7-13 for including additional questions in the survey.
    15. Before clicking the Next button and moving to the Preview section, review the optional actions below.

    Conditional logic in evaluations

    You can add conditional logic based off a user answering a question. You can do this by accessing the Conditional Logic drawer in two different ways:

    • Selecting the action menu, or ellipses, for a question and selecting Add Conditional Logic.
    • Selecting the action menu, or ellipses for a question, selecting Edit Question, and then adding conditional logic from the Additional Settings section.

    From there, follow the steps below to add conditional logic to your question:

    1. Define the outcome for the default condition.
      • Next Question: This takes the person filling out the evaluation to the next question.
      • End Evaluation: This ends the evaluation.
      • Skip Question: This takes the person filling out the evaluation to a future question, skipping the questions in-between.
    2. Define targeting rules based on evaluation responses by filling out the below:
      • Select Response: Select what responses to target. The options in this drop-down menu depend on the possible responses you configured for the question.
      • Select Outcome: Select what the outcome based on the response:
        • Next Question: This takes the person filling out the evaluation to the next question.
        • End Evaluation: This ends the evaluation.
        • Skip Question: This takes the person filling out the evaluation to a future question, skipping the questions in-between.
    3. (Optional) Add any additional conditional logic to other responses by selecting Add Response.
    4. In the lower-right corner, select Apply to apply once you have finished adding all desired conditional logic to the question.
    5. Repeat these steps as desired for all questions within the evaluation.

    The conditional logic configured for each question should then display below the question.

    If multi-select for a question is not enabled and multiple responses are selected when building out conditional logic, then they act as OR operators. If multi-select for a question is enabled and multiple responses are selected when building out conditional logic, then they act as AND operators.

     

    Reorder question answers

    If your first answer is intended to be the highest/best ranking, then you must reorder your answers so that the highest number equals the highest/best response. Otherwise, the system will note Answer #1 as the lowest/worst rating due to its low value.

     

    You can easily flip the answers to a question so that the last response is the first and the first is the last. This can be beneficial to use when you want to list the more positive answers first.

    To do this, open the corresponding question in a slide-out drawer and then click the Reorder Answers button in the top right corner of the Answers section. Ensure to save the question.

    Reorder evaluation questions

    After creating all of your questions, you may find it helpful to rearrange the questions to make the survey flow more logically. You can do this by clicking the Reorder Questions button in the top right corner of the Questions section.

    • Note: This button will only appear once two or more questions are added to the survey.

    A Reorder Questions modal will open where you can click the rearrange icon at the end of the preferred question and then drag and drop the question in the desired place. Click the Save button to save the changes made.

    • Note: Questions can only be reorganized before a survey is initially published.

    Delete survey questions

    You can delete a question from the survey by clicking the questions action menu, or ellipses, and then select Delete Question in the menu that opens. A warning modal will appear where you will confirm the removal of the question.

    Preview and publish a survey

    If an evaluation has been used to evaluate a candidate, then it cannot be edited

     

    When previewing the evaluation, you will only see it within one view since employees can only complete the evaluation within the CEM. Click the arrows listed at the bottom of the preview to navigate between questions. If any updates need to be made, ensure to navigate back to the Content section to make the necessary changes. 

    When finished, click the Draft status in the top right corner of the section and then Publish from its dropdown. This will mark the evaluation as active.
