The following fields ( Job, Skills, Education & Certification all have the " Can't what you're looking for" tab.

If you don't find something then click on that option ( refer to Screenshot (4) to report to us and we will add it asap.
- Education allows you to stipulate a specific degree and field of study. You can select more than one if desired. As with other fields, you have the option of selecting Required or Preferred.
- Certifications are chosen by the industry and the certification title. These come from a list that is part of The Sieve™. The certifications can be individually Required or Preferred. For industry, select All Industries, then search for the desired certificate.
- Languages are intended to evaluate the speaking capability as listed in the resume. If no languages are listed, it’s not possible to evaluate this criterion.
- The location allows you to select resumes that have an address near your desired location. This is based on a city and its proximity in miles/kilometers to that location. If the job can be virtual (or has no fixed base), the default is Not Required/Remote Work.
- Visa/Immigration Status works much like language. If there is something specific on the resume indicating visa status, that can be used for evaluation and ranking. Note, this visa status is not a common characteristic of most resumes.
