This article explains how to use the ‘Job Titles’ filter to make your search more powerful and precise.

🧾 Where to find this filter

The ‘Job Titles’ field is available in both new and existing searches – and works the same in both.

⌨️ Entering job titles

Start typing the job title you're looking for and select the right suggestions.
Press Enter when you’re done typing. You can add multiple titles – the more synonyms, the better your results!

🔄 By default, we use the OR-rule:
A candidate must match at least one of the job titles you've added.
