No matter where you are in SeekOut, the left-hand menu is always available so you can quickly navigate between Home, Search, Projects, and other tools in your subscription.

Smart Match is a powerful, guided sourcing tool in SeekOut that helps you quickly uncover the most relevant, hard-to-find candidates—fast. Just enter a job title along with your required and preferred skills, and Smart Match will instantly analyze your criteria to surface top matches. You can further refine results using filters like location, diversity, education, and years of experience, making it easy to focus on the candidates who best fit your needs.

In this video, you’ll see how to set up a Smart Match search, interpret full and partial matches, and use profile insights to identify the strongest prospects for your open roles.

SeekOut profiles bring together key candidate information—from current and past roles, companies, and locations to skills, education, and public GitHub or publication data. Profiles may also include links to LinkedIn, GitHub, or other social accounts, plus contact details when available.

In this tutorial, we’ll walk through how to navigate each section of a candidate profile and use action buttons for tasks like adding candidates to projects. You’ll also see where experience, education, skills, GitHub contributions, and publications appear, depending on your license type, so you can make the most of every profile you view.

SeekOut’s diversity filters make it easier to identify candidates from underrepresented groups and support your diversity hiring goals. With a single click, you can filter for candidates who are women, Black/African American, Asian, Hispanic, veterans, and more—helping you expand your talent pool and reduce the time spent using traditional diversity sourcing methods.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how SeekOut infers diversity data, how to apply one or multiple diversity filters, and how to interpret your results so you can recruit more inclusively and effectively.

Once you’ve found promising candidates, adding them to a project helps you stay organized and track their progress through the hiring process. Projects act like folders where you can group candidates for specific roles, hiring managers, or pipelines. From there, you can export candidate data, update statuses and tags, add notes, or start outreach using SeekOut’s built-in messaging tools.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn the different ways to add candidates to projects—from individual profiles or search results—and how to manage your projects to keep your recruiting workflow efficient and collaborative.

SeekOut makes it easy to connect with candidates by providing email addresses and phone numbers from trusted data partners—so you have more ways to reach out. Each time you retrieve an email or phone number, you’ll use a contact credit, helping you manage outreach while tracking your credit balance.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to check your available credits, retrieve contact details for one or multiple candidates at once, and use a multi-channel approach (email, phone, social links) to improve your chances of connecting. We’ll also cover how credits are used, when they’re not deducted, and how to report incorrect information.

Once you’ve added candidates to a project, SeekOut makes it easy to either export their data to a spreadsheet or share the project directly with others. You can collaborate with hiring managers, recruiters, or stakeholders—even if they don’t have a SeekOut license—by choosing the sharing method that works best for your workflow.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to:

By the end, you’ll know exactly how to get candidate data into the right hands while keeping control over what information is visible.
