Amy is creating a job requisition to recruit for an IT Support Worker. This position requires weekend work but there are no questions about weekend work available to select. Amy creates new supplementary questions to ask applicants about their ability to work weekends. These questions display as a separate questionnaire page when applicants are applying to the job requisition.
You can use the
Maintain Questionnaires
 task to inactivate supplementary questionnaires when you no longer require them.
