Recruitera's education filter will let you narrow the pipeline by candidates' educational background — filtering by university name, degree, and degree subject using "contains" and "does not contain" logic. This filter is coming soon and will be available in the filter sidebar in Table view.

Once released, the Education filter will support the following fields:

All matching is case-insensitive.

Recruitera will pull education data directly from candidate CVs and profiles. Using "contains" logic means a search for "Cairo" in University Name would match "Cairo University", "American University in Cairo", and any other university with Cairo in its name. The "does not contain" option lets you exclude specific educational backgrounds — for example excluding candidates without a relevant degree subject.

💡 This article will be updated with step-by-step instructions as soon as the Education filter is available. In the meantime, use the Boolean search bar to search for degree names or university names within candidate CVs.

You can use Recruitera's Boolean search bar in Table view to find candidates by educational background right now:

The dedicated education filter in Recruitera is not yet available — it is currently in development. In the meantime, you can use the Boolean search bar in Table view to search for a university name, degree, or degree subject directly within candidate CVs. Use exact phrase matching with quotes for more precise results, for example searching "Cairo University" to find candidates who attended that specific institution.

Until the Education filter is released, use the search bar in Table view with Boolean operators. Search for "Bachelor" OR "BSc" OR "B.Sc" to find candidates with undergraduate degrees. For more specific searches, combine terms — for example "Computer Science" AND "Master" finds candidates with a Master's degree in Computer Science. The search covers full CV text so any degree mentioned in the CV will be searchable.
