You should contact your credit agencies and put blocks in place on opening new lines of credit. This is about all you can do.

Perhaps you can call your local government office, the prosecutors office. They might know what you can do to try to protect yourself.
As we've found in the states though, often times there is little you can do.

That's a US thing. The rest of the world doesn't have semi-sanctioned private companies that work to enable the stealing of identities like in the US. That's completely unique to the US.

You keep saying "now" but you haven't said what you have done. What is the current status? Did you send them your data?

I'm afraid that I have no idea what you can do now. Where are you located? You will need local resources for this, this is purely a legal issue locally. In the US we would file a police report and contact credit agencies.

Don't ever send your personal info to someone promising a job.

saudi arabiaOh wow, okay. So you have a Saudi passport? I would contact the local police and ask them if there is anything that you should do. I doubt that they can do anything but they might know who to tell, what agency. I'm afraid I know nothing of Saudi identity laws or how theft there would work.

he can just steal or can doing dangerThat depends on many things, all of them unique to your local country. In the US they can do a lot of things using your identity and it is very bad. I assume most countries have better identity controls but I have no idea. You really need to talk to other Saudis about identity theft and what risks it poses there. It might be a big deal, it might not be at all.
Did you give them your home address?
-
@scottalanmiller
yes -

yesOkay, chances are the scammers do not operate in Saudi Arabia as we know that the OP was in India. This is not a scam very likely to target your home or you physically but only your identity. However, you do need to be aware that you just gave away all of your personal information including your home address and enough about you to identify you anywhere. If someone wanted to use this to rob you, for example, it would make it much easier. You've also identified yourself as a target for scams so you will likely get a lot more.
Most likely this is purely identify theft. But there is no guarantee, of course.
