ATS Question Bank - Improved Display Options for Multiple Choice and Dropdown Questions

Currently in the ATS Question Bank builder:

• Multiple choice questions do not display as checkboxes , they appear as dropdown menus, so you can not see all options.

• Both dropdown and multiple choice options automatically sort alphabetically, but we need the ability to maintain custom ordering (e.g., Monday-Friday should stay in weekday order, not alphabetical)

• Instruction blocks appear in scroll boxes rather than clean text format

Requested improvements:

  1. Multiple choice questions should visually display as check boxes and dropdown menus when appropriate

  2. Option to maintain custom ordering for dropdown/multiple choice answers instead of forced alphabetical sorting

  3. Instruction blocks to display as plain text without scroll box formatting


Describe the Challenge This would improve the professional appearance and usability of application forms for both administrators and candidates.
