You can use the Toolset form hook "cred_before_save_data" and assign the value to your desired field.
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/cred-api/#cred_before_save_data

For example - I've added the following code to "Custom Code" section offered by Toolset with the code snippet namely "toolset-custom-code":
- hidden link

add_action('cred_before_save_data', 'func_save_content_for_generic_field',10,1);
function func_save_content_for_generic_field($form_data) {
    // if a specific form
    if ($form_data['id']==198) {
		
        if (isset($_POST['post_content_accepted']) and !empty($_POST['post_content_accepted']) ) {
          	$_POST['post_content'] = $_POST['post_content_accepted'];
        }else if(isset($_POST['post_content_rejected']) and !empty($_POST['post_content_rejected']) ) {
          	$_POST['post_content'] = $_POST['post_content_rejected'];
        }
    }
}

The above code will assign the selected post content (accepted or rejected) to the default post_content.

Can you please check and let me know if that works now.

No, it isn't.
I don't understand, the code seems correct

Can you please check now: hidden link

I've adjusted the code added to "Custom Code" section with code snippet "toolset-custom-code" as given under:
=> hidden link

add_action('cred_save_data', 'func_save_content_for_generic_field',10,2);
function func_save_content_for_generic_field($post_id, $form_data) {
    // if a specific form
    if ($form_data['id']==198) {
      
       if (isset($_POST['post_content_accepted']) and !empty($_POST['post_content_accepted']) ) {
          	$post_content = $_POST['post_content_accepted'];
        }else if(isset($_POST['post_content_rejected']) and !empty($_POST['post_content_rejected']) ) {
          	$post_content = $_POST['post_content_rejected'];
        }
      
      
            // add it to saved post meta
              $my_post = array(
                  'ID'           => $post_id,
                  'post_content' => $post_content
              );
  
            // Update the post into the database
              wp_update_post( $my_post );
        
    }
}

Can you please confirm it works as expected now.

[francescoG]

Yes, it works.

Now we have just the other issue

2) if I use [wpv-post-link item="@job-candidate.parent"] instead of [wpv-post-title item="@job-candidate.parent"] the the WYSIWYG field has not loaded and it doesn't work

It is strange that it doesn't work but it isn't fundamental

Can you please check now.

I've adjusted the default value as given under in the form to display the parent post link:

[cred_show_group if="( $(post_title) eq 'accepted' )" mode="fade-slide"]
    [cred_generic_field type='wysiwyg' field='post_content_accepted']
      {
      "default":"Mx. [wpv-post-title] <br /> accepted for \"<a href='[wpv-post-url item="@job-candidate.parent"]'> [wpv-post-title item="@job-candidate.parent"]</a> \" <br /> ciao "
      }
    [/cred_generic_field]
[/cred_show_group]
 
  [cred_show_group if="( $(post_title) eq 'rejected' )" mode="fade-slide"]
    [cred_generic_field type='wysiwyg' field='post_content_rejected']
      {
      "default":"Mx. [wpv-post-title] <br /> rejectd for \"<a href='[wpv-post-url item="@job-candidate.parent"]'> [wpv-post-title item="@job-candidate.parent"]</a>\" <br /> ciao"
      }
    [/cred_generic_field]
  [/cred_show_group]

Can you please confirm it works as expected now.

I think for the same alternative solution.
