Job application forms are used to obtain relevant information from job applicants to assess their suitability for the job. Thus, job application forms should request for information relevant to the requirements of the job, to enable hiring managers to shortlist the right applicants for interview. This ensures that the job applicants are assessed fairly and based on merit.

Additional personal data if required for admininstrative purposes can be collected after selection or shortlisting. If the additional personal data are asked in the application form, the form should state that the information is captured for administrative purposes only.
