    I recently created an account with you guys, specifically to find a job application template.  I would like to know immediately in my personal email inbox, if an application has been submitted to me.

    You may also implement your own Email into your Setup as a Sender E-Mail Address, and if you would like to learn more about how to set this up you can read more about it here: How to Add a Sender Address.

    Hello earthhomecleaning,

    You should actually add a form notification email alert in your form and set the "Recipient Email" field to any desired email address. The following guides should help you:

    Set recipient email address:  http://www.jotform.com/help/41-Finding-out-E-mail-Address-used-for-submission-notifications 

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you!
