Volunteer Application Form with Background Check at Beginning of Workflow

Create a more manageable volunteer application process with an intuitive application and done-for-you workflow.

Our volunteer application template streamlines your entire volunteer process, making it easy for your volunteers and staff to interact with one another. This template is a professional, branded volunteer application with features that enable you to:

  • Keep track of key steps in the process and be notified when applications need your attention.
  • Take notes, select interview times, and record feedback for each applicant alongside their application.
  • Automatically assign applications to the right team member at the right time in the workflow.

This template uses Person fields and Workflow Tasks to make your volunteer application workflow as straightforward as possible. These features enable you to assign your users applications when their input is needed and make sure they can easily see new tasks as they’re assigned to them.

Simply copy this form to your account and begin customizing! Feel free to change the form’s functionality, fields, or workflow steps to best fit your needs.

This is one of two versions of the Volunteer Application Template. This version has the background check at the beginning of the workflow and the interview afterwards. The alternate version has the interview at the beginning of the workflow and the background check afterwards. The video below uses the alternate version as an example.
