Form structure

The page is divided into compact sections. Each block is rendered as an outlined card (`Paper`), matching the navigation flow listed below. Clearing the form resets every value to the defaults shown in this documentation (including candidate target = 10).

Section map

Collapsed overview of the cards displayed when you land on the form.

1. Basic Information

Title, Company, Salary Range (optional), Description.

2. Profile & Skills

Contract Type, Seniority, Location, Behaviour Profile chips, Hard/Soft skills inputs, contextual text areas.

3. Candidate Target

Slider + numeric field, credit helper text, chips showing the calculated breakdown.

4. Job Creation Info

Read-only credit summary with Base, Candidate, Total, and Remaining balances.

Save vs. confirm

The form never creates the job directly. Clicking Review & Create Job opens the confirmation modal described in the next document. Fields are only persisted after you confirm inside that modal.

Basic Information

Required fields drive the core job metadata and the opening text the assistant will display to candidates.

Basic Information — NovaWave Tech

Example values rendered inside the live inputs.

Title

Product Designer

Error state: Title is required

Company

NovaWave Tech

Error state: Enter company name

Salary Range (optional)

Optional — leaving blank keeps the hint text.

Description

Partner with product and engineering to craft human experiences for remote teams. Champion design reviews, usability tests, and accessibility standards.

Error state: Description is required

Input label behaviour

When you load a template from the library, labels stay above the fields so you can confirm the pre-filled content. When you type from scratch, the labels float as usual after you focus the field.

Formatting & practical limits

Inputs accept plain text with line breaks. The form requires a minimum amount of content to confirm the job, but there is no hard maximum. Keep titles under 120 characters and descriptions or ideal profiles within about 2,000 characters so reviewers can skim them comfortably in the confirmation modal and Telegram previews.

Profile & skills

These controls define the behaviour expectations and the capabilities the assistant stresses during interviews.

Profile & Skills

Selections and chips as they appear with NovaWave data.

Chips overflow behaviour

Hard/soft skills inputs render scrollable chips when many items are present.

Hard Skills

Figma

Design Systems

UX Research

Prototyping

Storybook

Accessibility Audits

Qualitative Interviews

Chips wrap and enable horizontal scroll when there are many entries, and the field keeps focus so you can keep typing without an extra click.

How the chips input works

Type a value and press Enter, comma, or click Add. Each token becomes a chip. Remove chips to adjust what appears in the review step and in the candidate briefing.

Additional context fields

Optional areas let hiring managers provide more nuance. Anything added here appears in the confirmation modal and informs the assistant’s briefing.

Previous Experiences — multi-line text used for past roles or industries.
Disqualifiers — anything that should immediately filter candidates.
Company Values — cultural notes surfaced to the assistant.
Languages (chips) — each language/level becomes a token, e.g. 'English (fluent)'.
Certifications (chips) — ideal for badges like 'AWS Certified'.
Work Style — text block describing collaboration expectations.

Include relevant but current data

Only include information that is necessary and useful for the process.Avoid adding extra or irrelevant details unnecessary data can reduce the accuracy and performance of the AI.The form shown here reflects the current dashboard experience.

Candidate target

This block controls how many candidate conversations the assistant should deliver and drives the dynamic credit calculation.

Candidate Target section

Slider and input with real-time credit calculation.

Candidate Target

5 base + 1 per candidate

Choose how many candidate submissions you want (1 - 1000). Credits are consumed when the job is created.

Slider: 1—100—250—500—750—1000

Current value: 8

Base 5

+ 8

= 13 credits

Helper text displays: “13 credits total”

Keeping slider and input in sync

Moving the slider updates the number field instantly. Editing the number field applies the same checks and snaps the slider to the new value. Entries below 1 or above 1000 are ignored.

Tooltip feedback

When you drag the slider, the live tooltip shows the current integer value, matching the candidates input. Releasing the handle commits the value, auto-updates the helper text, and recalculates the credit summary in the next section.

Credit summary

The read-only panel shows your current balance right away so you can review the job with confidence.

Job Creation Info

Topline credit metrics with an available balance of 120.

Base Credits

5

Candidate Credits

8

Total Credits

13

Remaining After

107

Low balance state

When the fetched balance is lower than the total required credits, the caption switches to “Insufficient balance to create this job.” The confirmation modal later prevents the submission and redirects to the Credits page.

Why 120 → 107

The canonical example assumes a balance of 120 credits and a target of 8 candidates. The calculation is 5 base credits + 8 candidate credits = 13 consumed, leaving 107 credits after confirmation.

Validation & error states

Errors appear beneath each field as soon as you leave it blank or submit without the required details. Messages follow the rules listed below.

Title, Company, Description, Contract Type, Seniority, Location, and Ideal Profile are required text inputs.
Behaviour Profile requires at least one option and stays in an error state until you pick something.
Hard Skills and Soft Skills must include at least one chip before you can continue.
Number of candidates accepts integers 1–1000. Anything outside that range is ignored and the last valid value remains.
All optional fields can stay blank; they simply won’t appear in the confirmation modal if untouched.

Error states in context

Example of required fields after submitting without filling them.

Title

(empty)

Title is required.

Behaviour Profile

Select at least one option

Select at least one behavior.

Candidates

Minimum 1.

Template behaviour

Opening the form from a template automatically fills almost every field for you.

Each template is applied once per visit; reselecting the same one won’t change anything.
Template values replace what’s on the form except for the candidate target, so you can keep your own number.
The info toast “Template applied” appears on success; “Template not found” shows otherwise.
Labels remain shrunk to signal pre-filled content, and the helper text still shows guidance such as chip instructions.

Resetting after using a template

Clicking Clear returns the form to its initial blank state so no template content carries over to your next job.
