Hi @Niyati Tomar  - You need to  Install the Recruiting App Manually: 04t0P000000N9rs"

I did it in my current environment and had to remove all permission set groups and delete the permission set and the previous 'Job Application' object I created since the data was missing because I was missing the data package ( I am sure it would work if you started it in a new environment and restarted the challenge. )

Since the package comes with its own Candidate and Position fields, you have to go into each one of these within the Job Application Object under Field & Relationships -> Select Candidate ->Edit - > change field type - > Select lookup relationship -> Next -> Next-> (VERY IMPORTANT) Select Read Access and unselect Edit Access -> Save

Now do the same for Position.

After that just follow the Challenge Promp.

Set up ' Manage Job Application Permission Set'

Go to Object

 Settings under 'Job Applications'

It should look like this and you're done!

Hello @Jose Espinoza

• Account Object Permission in 'Account Access ' includes Read, Create, Edit, Delete, View All Records, and Modify All Records.
• Sales User Muted Permissions- confirm it mutes Delete, view All Records, a nd Modify All Records correctly.
• Field Permissions- Make sure Annual Revenue and Customer Priority fields are muted for Edit access.
• Assignment-Verify the Sales User permission set group is assigned to the right user.
• Organization-wide-Defaults-check that Account and Contact are Visible but not editable, and Opportunity is visible only to record owners and role hierarchy users.

If everything seems correct, try refreshing the page and rechecking the permissions. 

I was able to figure it out. First I had to install this package "04t0P000000N9rs"

@riad bouchenak You do not need to wait for a certification to start getting real Salesforce experience. If your goal is Salesforce Admin specifically, I would focus on building proof of hands-on work first. The best starting point is a Trailhead Playground and a free Developer Edition org, because both let you practice in a real Salesforce environment instead of only reading theory. Trailhead’s own guidance for Playground Management is literally to create hands-on orgs and practice your Salesforce skills, and Salesforce Developers also offers free trial orgs for testing and development.  

Check this Trail: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/trails/learn_salesforce_with_trailhead

A practical path would be this. Start with Salesforce Fundamentals and the Salesforce Admin Career Path, then build things that look like real admin work: create users, profiles, permission sets, custom objects, page layouts, validation rules, reports, dashboards, list views, flows, and basic automation. Salesforce positions Career Paths as guided, role-specific learning with hands-on practice, and the Admin path is specifically built around the Salesforce Admin role.  

Check for reference: https://www.salesforce.com/learningprograms/

Then make your practice look like experience. Do not just say “I completed badges.” Build 2 or 3 small portfolio projects in your org, for example:

•  a help desk org with cases, queues, assignment rules, and dashboards 
•  a sales pipeline org with leads, opportunities, approval flow, and reports 
•  a nonprofit donor tracking org with contacts, campaigns, and automation 

That matters because Salesforce’s Trailblazer Career Marketplace lets you showcase projects

, work history, and additional career details through Career Mode, not just certifications. Employers can search based on skills, products, and profile details.  

For reference: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/trailhead-career-marketplace-quick-look/learn-about-the-trailblazer-career-marketplace

For real-world exposure, volunteering is one of the most legitimate paths when you are new. Salesforce has an official Trailhead trail called Volunteer Your Salesforce Expertise, and it is specifically about helping nonprofits and education organizations through pro bono Salesforce work. It also covers project scoping, sustainable solution design, deployment, and handoff, which is exactly the kind of experience beginners usually lack.  

For reference: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/trails/volunteer-your-salesforce-expertise

I would also actively plug into the community, not passively wait for opportunities. Join the Admin Trailblazer Community, local Trailblazer Community Groups, and mentorship spaces. Salesforce’s Admin Career Path links directly to the Admin community, and Salesforce’s learning programs also point beginners toward community and mentorship opportunities.
