Create Priority Tiers with Save & Star

You can easily build your own candidate tiers:

⭐ Tier 1 - Starred Candidates

Your highest-priority candidates.
Great fit, high relevance, or someone you want to move forward quickly.

Tier 2 - Saved Candidates

Strong potential fits, but not top priority yet.
Ideal for candidates you may revisit or compare later.

This lightweight tiering structure keeps your pipeline clean and helps you make decisions faster during reviews or team discussions.
