How to Create a New Tag in the Hire Pipeline

Summary

Creating a new tag in the Hire Pipeline allows you to customise the way you track candidates throughout the hiring process. Tags can be used to categorise candidates based on various criteria, such as skills, interview stages, or candidate status. If a tag is not available in the existing list, you can create a new one easily to ensure your pipeline is organised and up to date.
