📲Should it be necessary to sign in to apply for a job?
We are opening a consultation on whether job seekers (candidates) should have to login to United Baristas Jobs to complete an application. There are two options: • People must sign in with UB-iD, which requires a verified email address or Google account • People can directly complete the application form, with a reCAPTCHA check Pros and Cons • UB-iD is the more secure, means that the email address is confirmed and isn't entered incorrectly – but also adds friction to the application process • Direct access to the application form makes applying easier, but creates opportunity for candidate's email address to be entered incorrectly (human error) and for spam applications Have a view, let us know 👇
