Match candidates from your database

Search your own candidate database with AI matching against a job or job description.

What it is

AI Match scores and ranks candidates in your own database against a specific job, a pasted job description, or a job title — so you don't have to manually search your database for the right fit.

Who can use it

Everyone can search; admins and members can apply/shortlist. Viewers can browse but not act.

Where to find it

Sidebar → AI Match → Your database tab.

Steps

  1. Pick an existing job, or paste a job description, or search by job title.
  2. Apply filters (location, experience, skills, source, etc.) to narrow results further.
  3. Review AI match scores per candidate.
  4. Select candidates and Apply — choose one or more jobs to shortlist them to.
  5. Applying for the first time can trigger outreach — see From apply to video interview.

Good to know

  • Match scores are a starting point for triage, not a hard cutoff — always skim a handful of borderline-scored profiles manually before ruling them out.
  • Bulk-applying many candidates at once to a job can trigger many outreach emails simultaneously if your organization's outreach settings are on — double-check your outreach settings before a large batch apply.

Common questions

  • Can I match without an existing job? Yes — paste a JD or just a job title.
  • Where's the difference between this and the Global talent pool tab? This searches candidates already in your organization's database; the other tab searches Talynce's shared network — see Global talent pool.
  • Can viewers shortlist candidates from here? No.
  • What does the match score actually measure? A combination of skills overlap, experience fit, and other job-description signals — treat it as a ranking aid, not a hard pass/fail gate.
  • Can I match against a job I haven't published yet? Yes, draft jobs can still be used as the matching target.
