  • Each slot requires a specific file upload
  • All required documents must be completed before continuing

Submission #

  • The Candidate clicks Continue after completing required actions
  • The system validates:
    • Required uploads are completed
    • Required confirmations are checked
  • If validation fails:
    • The Candidate cannot proceed
    • Missing items are highlighted
