Take a look behind the scenes and see what community ideas and other improvements we are working on, as they are being developed.
Search improvements: part I
This is the first release of some search improvements we are working on. Inspired by the ideas of @fadouae Send CV from search and @sdejonge Usability search, both from the Dutch community. We are working on more search improvements, and are expecting a part II and even III. What we will implement in those will depend on other community ideas. Status at this moment is that both on the English and the Dutch community more search is on Nr. 1, so it is looking very good for further search improvements.
First of all we changed the list of available fields to search on, to only the fields that are marked as used in the setup. This together with fields every customer has mandatory, like registration date and last modification date, which cannot be turned off.
Secondly, we have aligned the search result screen to have the same options like the "applications" tab:

You are probably familiair with those options: select all/none/all on this page. Filter on status, location, flags, match %, etc. And perform additional tasks like send by mail to contacts, print, etc. All options you are familiair with from the "applications" tab for a vacancy.
Enhanced match weighting factors
We enhanced the match features in peoplexs in the way it deals with weighting factors.
First, you can now add labels to weighting factors that show up on your application forms on your website. In the next example we ask the candidate to fill out language skills where we have 3 weighting factors and we added the values "Basic, Intermediate and Fluent" to these factors:

This creates a nice "matrix like" form for the candidate to fill in.
Second, we calculate the match score using the weighting factors of the skills from the vacancy as a requirement. Continuing the language skill example: When the vacancy has "English" with weight "Intermediate", all candidates that apply and have the skill "English" with "Intermediate" or higher will have a 100% score.
