Dropboard Tutorial
This how to use Dropboard tutorial walks through each feature in order.
You start with setup and finish as a power user.
Dropboard
Turn your own website into a branded job board. Post jobs, collect applications and manage candidates without leaving your site. Starts at $9 per user per month with a 7-day free trial and no credit card needed.
Getting Started with Dropboard
Before any feature works, finish this one-time setup.
大约需要三分钟。
Here is my own walkthrough of the dashboard first:
现在让我们一步一步来。
第一步：创建您的帐户
Go to the Dropboard website and click Start Free Trial.
请输入您的电子邮件地址并创建密码。
Dropboard offers a 7-day free trial with no credit card required.
✓ 检查点： 检查你的 收件箱 请发送确认邮件。
Step 2: Install Dropboard on Your Site
Dropboard runs in the browser, so there is nothing to download.
Copy the code snippet from Settings and paste it into your website template.
这就是它的样子：
✓ 检查点： Your career page now shows an empty job board.
步骤 3：完成初始设置
Add your company name, logo and brand colours.
Then enable features you plan to use, like promoted jobs or client management.
✅ 完成： 您已准备好使用以下任何功能。
How to Use Dropboard Personal Recruitment Platform
Personal Recruitment Platform lets you run your entire recruitment process from your own website instead of a rented portal.
以下是使用步骤。
Step 1: Open the Jobs Dashboard
Log in and click Jobs in the left sidebar.
This is where every job posting lives.
Step 2: Create a New Job
Click New Job and fill in the title, location and salary range.
Paste or write your job description in the editor below.
✓ 检查点： Your draft appears in the Jobs list with a Draft label.
Step 3: Publish to Your Career Page
Hit Publish and the role goes live on your site.
Dropboard allows unlimited job openings on your website.
✅ 结果： You can post your own jobs on a branded job board you control.
💡 专业提示： Use AI to draft a first-pass job description, then edit the tone yourself.
How to Use Dropboard Custom Forms
Custom Forms lets you build an application form that asks exactly what your hiring managers need.
以下是使用步骤。
Step 1: Open the Form Designer
Go to the job you published and click Application Form.
The form designer opens with name and email already added.
Step 2: Add Custom Questions
Drag in custom questions, dropdowns and custom sections.
File attachments are supported up to 10MB per upload.
这就是它的样子：
✓ 检查点： A slide up application form previews on the right side.
步骤 3：保存并测试
Save the form, then submit a test entry yourself.
Entries are automatically converted into candidate cards.
✅ 结果： Candidates apply in one flow without leaving your site.
💡 专业提示： Keep the first stage short. One user saw a big lift in completed candidate applications after trimming fields.
How to Use Dropboard ATS Workflows
ATS Workflows lets you track every applicant through a pipeline you design yourself.
以下是使用步骤。
Step 1: Open the Kanban Board View
Click a job, then switch to the kanban board view.
Default stages are Applied, Screening, Interview and Offer.
Step 2: Build Your Stages
Rename stages or add your own. Dropboard supports unlimited stages.
这就是它的样子：
✓ 检查点： Your custom stages appear as columns across the kanban board.
Step 3: Move People Through
Drag candidates from one column to the next as they progress.
Clear ATS workflows make the applicant review step far less messy.
✅ 结果： You have a working applicant tracking system on your own domain.
💡 专业提示： Add a Rejected column at the far right so candidate tracking history stays intact.
How to Use Dropboard Email Templates
电子邮件模板 lets you reply to candidates without rewriting the same message forty times.
以下是使用步骤。
步骤 1：打开模板库
Go to Settings and click Email Templates.
A few starter templates ship with every account.
Step 2: Write Your Own
Create templates for rejection, screening and job offers.
Insert merge tags so each email uses the candidate’s real name.
这就是它的样子：
✓ 检查点： Your saved template shows in the dropdown on any candidate card.
Step 3: Trigger From a Stage
Attach a template to a stage so it fires when you drag a card.
Automated email templates take most of the pain out of scheduling interviews.
✅ 结果： New candidates get a fast reply every time, with no manual typing.
💡 专业提示： Write one holding email for roles still open after 30 days. Silence costs you good people.
How to Use Dropboard Promoted Jobs
Promoted Jobs lets you push your job listings out to external job boards from one screen.
以下是使用步骤。
Step 1: Open the Promote Tab
Select a live role and click Promote.
Dropboard shows the job boards it can syndicate to.
Step 2: Choose Your Channels
Tick the boards you want and confirm the listing details.
这就是它的样子：
✓ 检查点： Each selected board shows a Pending or Live status badge.
Step 3: Track the Source
Syndication sends your jobs 即刻 to every board you ticked.
Check which board sent each applicant in the candidate record.
Drop the boards that send nothing after two rounds.
✅ 结果： You reach outside talent while keeping applications on your site.
💡 专业提示： Promote only your hardest roles. Junior openings usually fill from your career page alone.
How to Use Dropboard Job Posts Timer
Job Posts Timer lets you close a job posting on a set date without logging back in.
以下是使用步骤。
Step 1: Open Job Settings
Open any live role and scroll to Scheduling.
You will see a Post Expiry field.
Step 2: Set the Expiry Date
Pick the date the role should come down.
Job postings can be set to expire automatically.
这就是它的样子：
✓ 检查点： The job card shows a countdown next to its title.
Step 3: Confirm the Removal
On the expiry date, the listing disappears from your career page.
Applications already collected stay in your candidate database.
✅ 结果： No stale job openings sitting on your website for months.
💡 专业提示： Set expiry two weeks past your target start date. It buys room if an offer falls through.
How to Use Dropboard Database and Panel
Database and Panel lets you search every past applicant and give clients their own login.
以下是使用步骤。
Step 1: Open the Candidate Database
Click Candidates in the sidebar to see everyone who ever applied.
Past applicants stay searchable after a role closes.
Step 2: Set Up the Client Portal
Go to Panel and invite a client by email.
The white labeled client portal carries your branding, not Dropboard’s.
这就是它的样子：
✓ 检查点： Your client sees only the roles you shared with them.
Step 3: Export What You Need
数据 from applications can be exported into spreadsheets for analysis.
Use that export for 报道 or client management billing.
✅ 结果： Agencies can charge clients for portal access as a paid service.
💡 专业提示： Each white labeled portal can carry a different client logo. Set it before you send the invite.
How to Use Dropboard Advanced Filtering Options
Advanced Filtering Options lets you cut a long applicant list down to a shortlist in seconds.
以下是使用步骤。
Step 1: Open the Filter Panel
From the candidate list, click Filters at the top right.
Filters stack, so you can combine several at once.
Step 2: Apply Your Criteria
Filter by stage, applied date, source or answers to custom questions.
Location filtering helps when a role needs someone on site.
这就是它的样子：
✓ 检查点： The count at the top updates as each filter is applied.
Step 3: Save the View
Save the filter set so you can reuse it next week.
Sorting new candidates by newest first works well for busy roles.
✅ 结果： Your shortlist takes a few minutes instead of an afternoon.
💡 专业提示： Filter by a single knockout 问题 first. It removes most mismatches in one click.
How to Install Dropboard

以下是使用步骤。
Step 1: Copy Your Snippet
Open Settings and find Install.
Copy the single line of code shown there.

Dropboard Common Mistakes to Avoid
Mistake #1: Asking for everything on the first form
❌ 错误： A twenty-field application form with three uploads before anyone has spoken to you.
✅ 右图： Collect only essential details at the initial stage, then ask for the rest at screening.
Mistake #2: Leaving stages at the defaults
❌ 错误： Using the stock pipeline and then losing track of who is where.
✅ 右图： Establishing clear hiring stages that match how your team actually works.
Mistake #3: Treating it like a job board only
❌ 错误： Posting roles and ignoring the candidate database, templates and filters.
✅ 右图： Automating repetitive hiring tasks so the whole hiring process runs on its own.
Dropboard Troubleshooting
Problem: Jobs don’t show on my website
原因： The snippet sits in a cached template or the wrong page section.
使固定： Clear your site cache, then confirm the snippet is inside the page body.
Problem: Candidates apply but nothing arrives
原因： Notification emails are landing in spam or going to an old address.
使固定： Update the notification address in Settings and whitelist the sending domain.
Problem: File attachments fail to upload
原因： The file is over the 10MB limit or uses an unsupported format.
使固定： Ask for PDF or DOCX under 10MB and note the limit on the form.
📌 笔记： If none of these fix your issue, contact Dropboard support.
Users appreciate the responsive support from the founder.
