Easy opt-out of otherwise mandatory Diversity Questionnaire

Summary

We're looking to make all questions in our diversity questionnaire mandatory for those who opt to complete it, but give an easy option to opt-out

I've been asked to explore solutions to make responses mandatory for those who opt to complete the form, but non-mandatory for those who wish to skip it.

In a nutshell:

1. Do you wish to complete this questionnaire? Y/N

• If Y: An answer must be provided for all subsequent questions
• If N: Subsequent responses are not collected / not mandatory

It's insufficient to send a follow-up email or invite them to complete a survey elsewhere; this has to be integrated into the application process.
