Learn how to add multiple placement opportunities, track interview progress, update interview statuses, and manage placement offers throughout the placement search process.
The guide also explains how to communicate updates to your school and understand the placement workflow from submission to placement creation.
Overview
Many programs require students to interview with multiple locations before securing a placement. To support this process, Field Application Forms help in collecting multiple placement suggestions within a single submission.
Each placement suggestion represents a potential placement opportunity where a student may interview with a location and, if applicable, a supervisor or preceptor.
After submitting the form, students can continue updating interview outcomes using Interview Statuses until a placement is created.
Process Workflow
- Submit one or more placement suggestions.
- Track interview progress for each location.
- Update Interview Statuses as interviews progress.
- Accept or decline placement offers.

A Field Application Form may contain multiple placement suggestion sections. The number of placement suggestions available depends on how the form was configured by your school.
Each placement suggestion can include:
