Updated over 2 months ago

Looking for candidates with a specific degree or education level? This filter helps you find the right match!
For some roles, it’s important that candidates meet a certain level of education. With the ā€˜Education Levels’ filter, you can easily narrow down your search.

šŸŽÆ When should you use this filter?

Use it when you only want to see candidates with, for example, a vocational, college, or university background.
It helps you keep your search relevant and focused on the right level.

āœļø Pro tip: use synonyms

Not every candidate uses the same terms. To get the best results, add variations and related keywords. For example:

  • For vocational/MBO: level 2, MTS, MEAO, ROC, SUMMA, de Rooi Pannen

  • For college/HBO: Bachelor, University of Applied Sciences, Fontys, Inholland, etc.

  • For university/WO: University, Master, Academic level, TU Delft, Utrecht University, etc.

The more synonyms you add, the broader and better your results will be. āœ…

šŸš€ How to apply the filter

  1. Open a new or existing search.

  2. Go to the ā€˜Education Levels’ field.

  3. Start typing a level or institution and select the suggestion.

  4. Add extra synonyms if needed.

Your search results will update automatically based on your input.
