Zoho Recruit | Advanced Filters

Advanced Filters

The advanced filter is a powerful search tool that enables you to extract valuable recruiting information in no time—information, which could otherwise take much longer to find out. With a regular filter, your search is based on field values, for example, all candidates whose state is "California". With advanced filters, you can run intelligent searches based on the activities associated with the records, such as candidates that have no open job opening associated with them or job openings without any notes for the last 6 months.

Availability

Available across all editions of Zoho Recruit.


If the criteria for advanced filters are based on recruiting priorities such as tasks, notes, and emails rather than just field values, your chances for discovering valuable recruiting information are much higher. If you use intelligent combinations of the available criteria, advanced filters can feel like magic.
