Search for talent

Once you have run at least one search, this section is replaced with Recent Searches showing your three most recent queries so you can quickly pick up where you left off.

4. In the search bar, enter the job title and any relevant details you are looking for. The more detail you provide, the better results you will get. For example:

   • "Barista with latte art skills in Sydney"
   • "Accountant with Xero experience in Brisbane"
   • "Marketing Manager with social media expertise in Melbourne"

   The natural language search will match job titles, skills, keywords, and other candidate attributes based on your input.
