I am having trouble inserting data into my WordPress database using the following code. The issue is that when I insert data, the same page reloads and the data is not being added.

<?php get_header(); ?>
<div class="content">
    <form>
        Job Title: <input type="text" name="jtitle"><br><br>
        Job Link: <input type="text" name="jlink"><br><br>
        Job Last date: <input type="text" name="jld"><br><br>
        <input type="submit" value="Add Job" name="insert"><br><br>
    </form>
    <?php
    if (isset($_POST['insert'])) {
        $jt=$_POST['jtitle'];
        $jl=$_POST['jlink'];
        $jld=$_POST['jld'];

        global $wpdb;
        $sql=$wpdb->insert("wp_job",array("jtitle"=>$jt,"jlink"=>$jl,"jld"=>$jld));
        if ($sql==true) {
            echo "<script>alert('New Job Added')</script>";
        }
        else {

            echo "<script>alert('New Job Not Added!')</script>";
        }
    }
    ?>
</div><!-- .content /-->

The issue is that the form is not using the POST method. Change the form tag to use the POST method as follows:

<form method="post">

This will allow the data to be submitted via POST and be processed in the PHP code.
