For example, if you want the candidate to be able to choose by Department, select Department and the candidate will be shown a list of departments to select from. Each time a new job is added in that department they will get an email alert. If you choose more than one option, then they are used together e.g. if candidate chooses a department and site then only jobs which match BOTH of those will be emailed
