There is probably an opportunity here for someone to provide a service offering advertisers a simple customisable form that includes some basic questions that needs to be completed prior to submission. It would have to be simple (e.g. no programming tests). Bonus points if the advertiser can then filter submissions based on various combinations (and possibly assigned weights) of answers.

e.g.

- Do you have a legal right to work in x

- Have you had y years experience in z

- Could you indicate which of the following you are familiar with

Obviously, all of these things are usually included in an application, but having them associated with applications in a standard format that can be used to filter or prioritise applicants could be very helpful I imagine.

This probably exists, but I'm not in the field and very rarely apply for jobs so I wouldn't know.
