Hi to all,

We currently have a fillable PDF as our employment application form, and the non-tech-savvy among our recruits really struggle with it. 

Is there a good form rendering application out there for Drupal 8?

The key features for me are:

  • Able to add basic verification to fields
  • Able to output as a CSV file (via email for import to our db)
  • Able to send a (formatted) email when a new applicant applies
  • Nice on-screen formatting with help tips.
  • Arrays, i.e. Has one former job on screen, but has an "Add more" button and knows to add repeated fields.
  • Ability to sign.. either pen-sign or treat a box as a signature.

The nice to have features:

  • Pagination
  • Ability to save an application and come back to it
  • The ability to upload various file formats (pdf, jpg) and attach them to email.
  • The ability to email a CSV for the array questions above to import.

I'm curious to see what options are out there, either free or commercial.

Thanks

Paul.

some of the features you speak of wouldn't be included in the webform.module but will need to be picked up elsewhere. ie: CSV files can be exported via the core views.module.

Yes, the newest version of Webform can do all these things.

Gents/Ladies.. Thank you for signposting this. I'm in the office Monday, so I'll install it on our testbed and have a play 👍🏻
