I'm having trouble executing a workflow fully. 

I need the Status of the candidate to update/change once the workflow has been triggered.

Everything else is working other than that,

The workflow is:

1. Executes on candidate applying for a job

2. Rule criteria is candidate status is Associate or New

3. Actions are:  S

Send Alerts - Email is sent (this is working, though I did get the email twice) 

Assign Tasks - Assigned user is reminded through pop up after 3 days if the candidate hasn't been actioned.(I don't actually know if this is working as the trigger date is 3 days)

Update Fields -

I've clearly missed something. Maybe in the rule criteria?  unless it's a backend issue with Zoho. (most likely me) 

Can anyone help? I have quite a lot of workflows to create. 

Thank you :)
