Field mapping

Choose which answers fill which staff profile fields when someone is hired, so nobody types them in twice.

For admins

When a candidate is hired, Pair creates an inactive staff profile for them and fills it from their application and their form answers.

Check your coverage

The cards show how many profile fields are filled, how many come from the application and how many from forms, and how many aren't mapped yet.

Under Profile fields, the tabs split the fields into Profile, Qualifications, Employment and ID check, each with how many are filled. Each field shows where its answer comes from: From the application, or the form and question that fill it. First name, last name and email always come from the application.

Map a field

  1. Go to Apply › Forms and open the form.

  2. Open the question that asks for it, such as Date of Birth.

  3. Under Worker profile field, choose the profile field it fills.

  4. Save the form. The field now shows as filled in Field mapping.

Several forms can fill the same field, so you can use different forms for different kinds of onboarding. A field that isn't mapped stays empty on the new profile until someone fills it in.
