How does each search method work?

  • Exact Order will search for CVs that contain ALL of the words in the EXACT order as it is written.

When you click on the Search CVs button, you will be redirected to the page with candidates matching your search. You can click on any candidate to view their card.

  • The CV card will include the CV ID, last CV update, and the main information such as residence location and job title on top.

  • Employers will now have quick access to essential info like education, work experience, target job and salary expectations, reducing time spent on each CV.

  • Moreover, CV attachments and cover letters are also shown on the CV card instead of opening in a separate window.

  • This will make the process of viewing and interacting with job seeker profiles way easier for our employers. You no longer have to worry about making unnecessary clicks and switching between multiple pages!

With the new CV card, all relevant information about the candidate appears upfront. With this enhanced user interaction with CVs, employers are empowered to make more successful and faster hiring decisions.
