Craft and Save Specialized Job Seeker Searches

Located in the Job Seekers page header, the basic Search bar also accommodates an advanced Search, which can be saved for later application. Advanced Searches can be combined with Filters to create precise views.

Create an Advanced Search

Choose Filter Settings (Optional)

Select Search Options

  1. Choose Requisition(s)
    To begin, apply the Requisition drop-down Filter to:
      All (Requisitions)
      OR
      [Specific Requisition Number]
  2. Select Save Options
    From the Save Options menu, select the radio button for: New; and enter the: View Name.

    Quick Tip: If no views are saved, the system selects: New.

  3. Save the View for Future Use
    (Recommended) Check the box adjacent to the message: Save this view for later use. Once saved, the View will appear in the Existing drop-down for future selection.

    Quick Tip: A banner, listing Saved Views, will appear at the top of the Home page Dashboard.

  4. Add Fields to View
    For All Requisitions (or a selected Requisition), navigate to the Add Fields to View menu. Using the default Find menu (or sub-tab), type in a keyword, and click [Go]. From the Search results, which display below the menu, choose the [Field Name], and it will be included, as a bar, in the menu: Optional Fields Included in View.

    Clear an Advanced Search

    Choose the [Clear Search] button from the center of the Customized View tab or at the top of the Job Seekers tab.

    Open a Saved Search

    Return to the Customize View tab / Save Options menu. Select: Existing. Then select a View Name from the drop-down.

    Note: If there are no Existing Views, the option is grayed out.

    Click [Apply Search].

    Remove a Saved Search

    Select a: View Name from the Existing (View) drop-down. Click on the adjacent [Remove this View] button. When the confirmation message appears, click [OK].
