Symptom
When we add a hyperlink field in Job Application, we can correctly add it as expected, and it works.
Then add this field to Candidate Summary Display Options so it shows up in Candidate Workbench, but it displays the HTML tag and it's not a clickable link.

Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management
Reproducing the Issue
- Define the hyperlink field in Application template, and configure it accordingly to show up in Display Options
- Insert a URL in Application page
- Go back to Candidate Workbench/Candidate Summary
- Click on 'Display Options', and select the hyperlink field
- It will show up the HTML tag with the URL
Cause
As of now, hyperlinks aren't supported to show up in Candidate Summary, so this is why it isn't rendering and it's showing the HTML code.
