Searching the CV Bank

The CV Bank lists every candidate your company has uploaded. Use the search box and filters to find people.

The CV Bank, with the upload area, the stat row, search and filters, and the candidate list

The numbers at the top​

NumberMeaning
Indexed CandidatesHow many candidates are in your CV Bank
Enriched ProfilesProfiles whose details were filled in successfully
Needs ReviewProfiles with one or more details a person should check
Avg. CompletenessHow complete your profiles are, on average

Search by meaning​

Type into Search candidates by keyword, skill, or summary... and select Search to search across whole profiles. You can describe what you are looking for in your own words, for example "backend developer with payment experience". The search looks for candidates whose experience fits, not only for the exact words you typed.

Filters​

Four filters sit under the search box:

FilterHow it works
All RolesPick a current role
All GenresPick a professional area, such as Quality Assurance Engineer
All JobsShow only candidates who applied for a particular job
All SkillsPick one or more skills. A candidate must have all of them

These are searchable: open one and start typing.

Select More Filters for the rest:

Capital letters and punctuation are ignored.

Searching by email​

Type the full address or any part of it, such as the part before the @ or the domain.

Clearing filters​

The filters you have applied appear under Active Filters. Remove one by selecting its tag, or select Clear All to start again.
