Using the Magnifying Glass

To quickly search for an individual in your account, click the magnifying glass in the navigation bar. A search field will appear and you can begin typing the applicant or candidate's name. As you type, you will see matching results appear and can select the correct name when you see it to be taken to the individual's preview page.

On the preview page, you can see the person's contact information, resume, recent activity, and any job(s) they've applied for. For more details, click on a job the applicant or candidate applied for to view their complete profile.

If you don't see what you're looking for, you can click 'Advanced Candidate Search' which will take you to the Candidate Search experience outlined in the next section.

Step-by-step Instructions for Using the Magnifying Glass

1. Click the magnifying glass icon.

2. Begin typing a name.

3. Click on the name when it appears.

Using Candidate Search

Candidate Search is a way to conduct a more advanced search. This can be helpful if you are not sure who you're looking for or if you would like to perform a search for a list of candidates with specific details (e.g. candidates who applied within a certain date range or have specific experience).

To start, click 'Candidates' in the top, left of your hiring site. On the search page, you can search for someone by name, email address, or phone number, search resumes by keyword, or generate a list using various filters.

You can edit filters by clicking on the desired filter button, making your selections, then clicking the 'Apply Filters' button.

Click on an applicant or candidate's name from the results to be taken to the individual's preview page. On the preview page, you can see the person's contact information, resume, recent activity, and any job(s) they've applied for. For more details, click on a job the applicant or candidate applied for to view their complete profile.
