When a candidate applies to a Quick Apply-enabled requisition, the Resume and Cover Letter fields are visible. Is it possible to remove or hide these fields in the Quick Apply screen?

The Resume and Cover Letter fields appearing in the Quick Apply screen are coming from the "resume" and "coverLetter" fields defined in the Job Application Template.

The visibility of these fields in the Quick Apply screen can be defined by setting the public attribute of the fields in Job Application Template.

To make the application fields visible in Quick Apply page, the public attribute should be set to "true". On the other hand, setting it to "false" will hide the field from Quick Apply screen.

Set the resume and coverLetter fields to public="false" to hide them from the Quick Apply page.

<field-definition id="resume" type="richText" required="false" custom="false" public="false" readOnly="false" anonymize="true" forward-intact="true" sensitive="false">

<field-definition id="coverLetter" type="richText" required="false" custom="false" public="false" readOnly="false" anonymize="true" forward-intact="true" sensitive="false">

TIP: While enabling Quick Apply, SAP SuccessFactors recommends you to create a new application template with minimal set of fields, enough to screen the candidate. Enabling quick apply for an existing application template would let the candidate fill out the complete profile, defeating the purpose of quick apply.
