# Notes You can easily capture important information by taking notes directly on a candidate’s profile or job, making it accessible to your team. Users with the Admin role have visibility into all notes, including private ones. You can create, and edit all notes as needed and delete notes on your own ## Create note There are 2 ways to create notes: On the Job and the Candidate profile

Create notes on job

1. Open a Job that you want to create notes on, click **Notes** tab

2. Write your note, then click **Add Note**

Create notes on Candidate profile

2. Click the message box or click **Create Note** (if that candidate profile has *no notes yet)* 3. Write your note, then click **Create**

**When writing your note, you can:** * **Format your text** using the formatting toolbar, with options like headings, bold, italic, hyperlinks, bulleted and numbered lists, and clearing formats. * **Attach files** by clicking the paperclip icon (file types: .pdf, .docx, .doc; image types: .png, .jpeg; max file size: 5MB). * **Mention team members** by typing or clicking “@” and selecting a name from the drop-down list.
