Job Matches

Matches displays all active, public student profiles from the schools where the job is currently posted and approved, and whose education aligns with the job candidate's qualifications or chosen segment.

The center of the page displays Top Matches, which are the most relevant candidates based on the job's qualifications and candidates' interests. Students highlighted in this section are likely to respond to your outreach. 

• Top matches only appear for jobs for which you've specified candidate qualifications for: 
  • Major
  • Graduation date
  • School year 
• If your job posting does not already have candidate qualifications, you are prompted to add them.

The profile card displayed for each Top Match will include the following information: 

• Profile photo (only displays if available) 
• Name
• College
• Major
• Grad month/year 
• Matching interests (only displays if candidate has any relevant job qualifications and interests) 

Top matches updates daily to display candidates with similar interests that match your job qualifications.

Below Top Matches, you will find All Matches, which are candidates that meet all job qualifications. 

The candidate table includes the following information for each match: 

• Name
• Last Engaged (only visible to Premium partners) 
• Interests 

In the Match Criteria section, Premium partners can find more details about how matches display.
