Once you have created a position, you can utilize the filters to narrow down your search even further.
We recommend casting a wider net, then adjusting your search as needed. If you are thinking about refining your position after it is created, the process is as easy and seamless as the creation process. The filters can be found on the left-hand side and will update your candidate results in live time as you adjust.
When you are viewing a position, all the filters used to create the position initially will be present to the left of the candidate results list view. By clicking on the arrow (>) button next to each filter, the specific filter will expand for editing.
Adding Skills: Must Have vs. Nice to Have
Must Have Skills
Think of these as your required Technical skills (stay away from functional or intangible skills/terms like leadership or management)
Functions as an “AND” boolean statement
Limit this section to 1 or 2 Required Skills maximum to increase the number of candidates shown
Nice to Have Skills
Search will yield candidates with any combination of the skills listed
Functions as an “OR” boolean statement
List nice to have technical skills along with functional or intangible skills like leadership or management here
TIP: The search query is NOT keyword searching the entire candidate profile. It’s only searching the skill tags selected by the candidate under the sections of Primary Areas of Expertise & Additional Skills
Years of Experience
Upon creating a position, the years of experience filter will default to show all levels. You may update the range for the overall years of experience you need for the given position. Note: This will only pull a candidate's years of experience in the specific role you have selected, not their overall work experience across all fields.
Location
The location filters are broken up into two sections: Onsite Location, and Remote Location.
Onsite Location: You are able to indicate up to eight cities within a position and adjust the mile radius from the city center of each. By doing this, you will surface candidates who are local to each city, within the mile radius, and are willing to work in the city or cities you indicate. By selecting 'Relocation', the results will include candidates not currently located in the city your position is located in but who are willing to relocate to that city for the right opportunity.
Remote Locations: If you are open to remote candidates, you can select 'Include remote candidates'. You'll have the option to include and/or exclude locations, as well as indicate the time zone and working hours this position requires.
Keyword Search
In addition to the initial filters, the position feature allows for you to keyword search, which will keyword search candidates’ entire profiles. This is distinctly different from the Must Have and Nice to Nave filters, as those relate to the correlating section on a candidate’s profile. Keyword searching will work with the filters to canvas the entire profile, as well. Traditional boolean search rules apply.

Assessments
You can also filter for candidates who have earned a skills badge from our wide variety of technical assessments. Select the name of the assessment or assessments that fit the skills required for your position to see candidates whose skills match and a demonstration of those skills.
More Filters
We provide a few other filters in the 'More' section including "Candidates with a CS degree", "Candidates open for contract", and "Candidates who don't require sponsorship". Based on the filters and/or search criteria listed, we also include the number of candidates that will appear in the results if you decide to apply these filters.
