Search Agents

Search Agents save your search criteria under a specific name so that whenever you need to apply those criteria again you just need to click on the Search Agent name and Talenture RS will directly display the matching candidates.

If you repeatedly apply common search criteria for locating candidates from the database you can create Search Agents for automating such searches.

You can create as many Search Agents as you want. You can also make changes to the criteria in an existing Search Agent and save the modified Search Agent.

Use Search Agents makes applying searches faster, avoids mistakes especially in complex search expressions such as Boolean keyword and can be used for training new team members in effective search.

Also, since only the criteria are saved same saved searches return more results when fresh resumes enter the database.

Managing saved searches
You can view all existing saved searches from the Candidate Search page by clicking the ‘Apply Search Agent’ link. This also allows viewing criteria of existing saved searches and updating them if required.

All Search Agents created by a user are public by default and are available for use to the entire team.

You can delete Search Agents that you’ve created and which you no longer require from the Advanced Candidate Manager.
