AI Sourcing: Introduction of the Filters

Use the Location filter to search for candidates that are available in your city or region. You can input City, State, Country, Metro Area, USA Zip Code, or Continent in the text bar and adjust the radius to be within 15, 30, 50, and 100 miles. You may also click on the Add/Edit Lists button to include a list of desired locations.

You may use the filter to find candidates based near the company or in your country. You can add more than one location and you can also avoid locations by clicking on the Exclude from Locations below.

*Please note: for all the added lists on the AI Sourcing page, you can include up to 200 entries in one list and apply 5 lists in total. In other words, a total of 1,000 entries can be added to these filters.

Mandatory Skills are the MOST important skills of the candidates. The skills listed here are “must-haves” and will affect the number of candidates in your talent pool.

You can choose from the recommended options or add skills manually. We recommend enabling the Smart Mode feature so that hireEZ will be able to analyze relevant skills of the role and adjust the mandatory skills to ensure more relevant candidates are displayed. If you turn off the feature, hireEZ will search exactly based on your input information. Click on Excluded Skills to clarify skills that you don’t want your candidates to have.

For Years of Experience, you can choose from the following time periods from 0-2 Years to over 20 Years. If you want candidates with 2-6 years of experience, make sure you click on both “2-4 Years” and “4-6 Years” options. If you only pick the latter one, hireEZ will specifically search for candidates with 4-6 years of experience.

In the Keywords section, you may add any words or phrases that you expect to see in your candidate’s profile. Unlike the Skill section which focuses on a particular section of the resumes, hireEZ will search keywords throughout the candidates’ profiles. You can also use Excluded Keywords to rule out certain profiles.
