Search in Clarvo is designed so you describe who you want in plain language, review how Clarvo interpreted it, and only then look at results. That review step is what keeps your results on target.

​
The search flow

1

You describe the role

Start a New Search and write who you’re looking for in everyday language — titles, skills, experience, location, and anything else that matters.
2

Clarvo translates your description

Clarvo reads your description and turns it into a set of structured filters — the concrete criteria it will search against. You’ll see a short “translating” step while it works.
3

You review the interpreted filters

Clarvo shows you the filters it understood as a row of badges above your results. This is your chance to confirm it got things right before you rely on the results.
4

You adjust if needed

Tweak the wording with Edit Search, or open Edit Filters to fine-tune the criteria directly. See Search filters for every available filter and whether it narrows or just ranks your results.
5

You set your evaluation criteria

Before you see candidates, you define the criteria Clarvo should judge them on. The criteria editor appears first — confirm or refine it to continue.
6

Clarvo runs an AI-powered evaluation

Clarvo assesses every candidate against your criteria. This evaluation is a built-in part of search — it’s how candidates are scored, not an optional extra.
7

You view your evaluated results

Clarvo returns the matching candidates, each scored and ordered by how well they fit your criteria.

​
Reviewing before you trust the results

The interpreted-filter badges are the heart of the review step. Each badge is something Clarvo decided to search for based on your description. Reviewing them means you can:
1

Catch misreadings early

If a badge doesn’t match what you meant, fix it before judging the results.
2

See what's driving the match

Understand why a candidate showed up — and what’s narrowing vs. simply ranking the list.
3

Open the right filter in one click

Click a badge to jump straight to that filter in Edit Filters.
Some filters narrow your results (hard filters) and others only rank them (soft filters). Knowing which is which is the key to widening or tightening a search — see Search filters.

​
Widening or narrowing

  • Too few results? Loosen or remove hard filters, or switch skills to Loose matching. Turn on deep search to widen the candidate pool.
  • Too many results? Add hard filters — specific titles, seniority, location, or required skills — to tighten the list.
