When selecting a candidate from the candidate list, you can either re-assign them for another position or delete them from the list.

Create new candidates

To add a new candidate, click on 'New Candidate' at the top of the page.

A form titled 'Create Candidate Profile' will appear, containing various fields to fill in the candidate's information.

There are two ways to add candidate information:

2- Manually entering the candidate's information, such as name, phone number, and country.

In both cases, the required information is added and saved by clicking on 'Add to Candidates' after which the candidate is immediately added to the candidate list on the same page.
