CV Search

Candidate CVs are ranked by relevance, so you get to see those best matching your criteria first.

You can pick the CVs which have been recently updated, so you know the candidate is currently job hunting or is open to opportunities.

Employers can use the Search CV interface to find the most suitable candidates from their extensive talent pool. Filter using 30+ criteria to drill down to the most relevant candidates instantly.

Below filters’ options are mandatory for all job seekers to specify when filling in their CVs.

Keyword search is the most appropriate option when existing filters are not enough to specify the precise terms or requirements. In general, keywords are used to run a broad search when many results are preferred.

You can search CVs using as many keywords as you want, separating your keywords by a single space. For example, “accounting finance banking”.

All: The search will return only CVs that contain all of the keywords you entered. For example, if you enter [oracle java] in the keywords text box and choose “All”, the system will return only CVs that contain both “oracle” and “java”. However, note that the words may appear in the CV in any order. For example, if a CV contains the word “java” in the job title and the word “oracle” in the training section, it will be shown in the results.

Any word: The search will return CVs that contain any (or all) of the keywords you entered. For example, if you enter [oracle java] in the keywords text box and choose “Any”, the system will return CVs that contain the word “oracle” as well as CVs that contain the word “java” and CVs that contain both of them.

Exact Order: The search will return only CVs that contain the entered words in that same order. For example, if you enter [project manager] in the keywords text box and choose “Exact”, the system will return only CVs that contain the words “project manager” in this order.

Boolean: Boolean Search provides you with an advanced method to search the CV database. You can use a combination of keywords and the Boolean operators (AND, OR, and NOT) to retrieve highly relevant CVs that match what your requirements. For example, using Boolean Search, you may want to search for CVs that contain the phrase “project manager” or the phrase “program manager” as long as the CV does not include the word “construction”, and in all cases, the CV must contain the word “PMP”. This search can be entered as: PMP AND (“project manager” OR “program manager”)

On the CV, the employer will see a set of buttons, similar to those that appear on clicking the Actions button from CV List View. Let us go through these, one by one.

Annotate Buttons

Add a Tag – Tags are short descriptors added to a CV to index or identify them later. Tags, once created and saved, will be attached to the candidate’s CV. Any tagged CVs can be later retrieved by running a quick search. The search results will then display CVs carrying these tags.

Add a Note – Once a CV has been opened and reviewed, notes can be added for recall. This feature is handy if multiple employers are working on a position. Any notes added are permanently attached to the CV.

Add Attachments – Any documents related to a candidate’s profile (e.g. design portfolios, original CVs, educational documents etc.) can be attached to the online CV. This is an excellent solution for maintaining a comprehensive record of each candidate.

Add Evaluation Form – This feature allows you to add structured standardized forms that might be in use at your organization for evaluation of candidates, such as Telephonic Screening forms, Face-to-Face Evaluation for Ground Officer, etc.

Manage CV Buttons

Copy to a CV Folder – A CV can be copied to a separate folder for easy retrieval at a later time so that it doesn’t get lost amid hundreds of CVs. This might be useful, for instance, when you come across a very good CV that does not suit any of the open positions at the moment, but which you would like to consider for a relevant post in the future.

Move CV to a Job Posting Folder- Employers can use this feature to apply on behalf of a candidate for a job they think the candidate will be suitable for if they haven’t applied for it themselves. This copies the candidate record into the specified job folder.

Collaborate Buttons

Share CV – The CV can be emailed directly to a friend, colleague, or manager’s inbox with a personalized message.

Invite Candidate to an Interview – Candidate can be invited for an interview session directly from the CV view, without having to resort to a separate interface. Telephonic, face-to-face, or online interviews can be scheduled through a fully automated interview scheduling system.

Other Actions

Print – To get a printed copy of the online CV.

Export – Allows you to download the CV in MS Word/PDF and Excel.
