`recruiting.applications.create`

Add a candidate to a posting yourself (a referral or someone you sourced): postingId, candidate name, email, optional phone, location and links, source (referral, sourced, other), an optional note, and idempotencyKey. A person already in recruiting with that email is reused. Only administrators and the posting's hiring manager can do this.
