Improve applicant search

Applicants can search for opportunities from several pages in your system (public landing page, Recommended Opportunities, Our Opportunities).

To narrow their search, applicants should:

1. At the top right of their screen, select Show Filters.

2. Adjust search criteria:

   • Search By Keyword: Enter key words or phrases to search through opportunity names and descriptions

   • Scopes (if configured): Select one or more scopes to include their associated opportunities. For more information, see Scopes.

   • Questions (if configured): Answer one or more questions to show opportunities relevant to your situation

3. Select Filter Opportunities.

Review the opportunity results and—if necessary—refine your search criteria.

To provide additional data points for applicants searching for opportunities:

• Include keywords in opportunity descriptions: Since the Search By Keyword includes opportunity names and descriptions, you may want to insert certain keywords in your opportunity descriptions

• Make questions Applicant Searchable: On questions for the General Application and apply-to opportunities, select Applicant Searchable

• Make scopes Applicant Visible: On any scope, select Applicant visible? to make it an available filter for applicants searching for opportunities
