AI-Powered Candidate Search & Matching
Find the Right Fit, Faster
Find top candidates in seconds with AI-driven search and matching—combining speed, precision, and scale to power smarter hiring.
What Is AI-Powered Candidate Search & Matching?
AI-Powered Candidate Search & Matching is an intelligent recruiting tool that helps you instantly find the most relevant candidates—across your internal database and external sources—using natural language search and precision filters.
Discovered’s Candidate Search & Matching feature lets you type something as simple as “backend engineers in Chicago with Node.js” and instantly see ranked results with color-coded match indicators. You can filter by resume rating, assessment results, skills, and more—without writing complex Boolean queries.
This feature is designed to help recruiters and hiring teams surface the right talent quickly, reduce redundancy, and keep pipelines filled with strong-fit candidates. Whether you’re reactivating past applicants or sourcing new ones from integrated platforms like People Data Labs, the system simplifies your workflow so you can focus on hiring—not hunting.
