Tell us what you are trying to do?
I am creating a jobs listing site. I want to add links on each job post - 'save' and 'send'. If they click on save, it saves the post to their account as 'saved jobs'. If they click on 'send' they can then email someone the post.

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hello,

Q1) saves the post to their account as 'saved jobs'

I suggest you try this:
1) Create a custom post type 'saved jobs' as child post type of "jobs"
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/creating-post-type-relationships/
2) Create a CRED form for creating 'saved jobs', display the submit button as "save", so when user submit the CRED form, it will be able to create a 'saved jobs' post, and the user is the author of 'saved jobs' post

Then you will be able to get all 'saved jobs' posts of current user:

Q2) If they click on 'send' they can then email someone the post.
Same as above, you can create another child post type 'send jobs' with a custom email field

and setup the CRED form with email notification:
