Recruit Volunteers Without the Paperwork

Command Established lets your department accept applications online, track candidates through your recruitment pipeline, and convert approved applicants into active personnel—all from one platform.

Custom Application Forms

Build application forms tailored to your department's needs. Collect contact information, availability, certifications, prior experience, and anything else you need to evaluate candidates. Forms are mobile-friendly so applicants can apply from any device.

No more paper forms, lost emails, or manual data entry. Every application is stored in your department's system from the moment it's submitted.

Your department's application forms—create multiple forms for different recruitment campaigns.

Share a QR Code, Get Applicants

Every application form gets a unique QR code and shareable link. Print the code on flyers, display it at community events, or post the link on social media. Interested volunteers scan the code and land directly on your application form—no account required.

Track which channels bring in the most applicants. Update or deactivate forms at any time without breaking existing links.

Track Every Candidate Through Your Pipeline

Review applications as they come in and move candidates through your recruitment stages—new, under review, interview scheduled, accepted, or declined. Add notes and keep a full history so the entire recruitment committee stays on the same page.

Filter and sort applications by date, status, or any field on your form. Never lose track of a promising candidate again.

From Applicant to Active Member in One Click

When a candidate is accepted, convert their application into a personnel record with one click. Contact information, certifications, and other details carry over automatically—no re-typing required.

The new member immediately appears in your roster, can be assigned to shifts, and starts building their training history. The entire onboarding flow happens inside Command Established.
