AI Filters
Use AI filters to narrow your search results by matching all hard requirements that are more traditional or keyword based.
Getting Started
Use AI filters to effectively narrow down your search to your must-have criteria. To get started with AI filters, you can start a search in one of five ways:
- Recommended: Prompting
- Find Similar
- Job Description
- Boolean
- Select Manually
The below section briefly covers each of the five methods, before diving deeper into the edit filters menu.
Prompting
80%+ of searches run on Juicebox use AI prompting to get started. A prompt is a description of the type of candidate you’re looking for, written out in a short paragraph or sentence.
For example, here are some well-written initial prompts:
- Marketing Manager in Europe, German-speaking, working at a large enterprise, skilled in SEO
- Senior Scientist in Australia, experience in Biotech, 10+ years of experience
- Consultant in London with 2+ years experience at top consulting firms
What makes a prompt well-written? A good prompt will explicitly describe what you’re searching for, mentioning specific requirements.
That can include fields like: location, job title, company experience, industry experience, skills, years of experience, university attended, degree held, and more.
Find Similar
The Find Similar feature helps you quickly discover profiles with similar backgrounds, skills, and attributes. From the search bar, type in a candidate name or LinkedIn URL to pull up their Juicebox profile, and replicate the criteria you like.
Please note, you can select up to 5 profiles and 8 traits at once.
Search by Job Description
If you prefer to search by job description, you can do so by selecting the “Job Description” button. To enter your job description, you can choose from three methods:
- ATS: Import the job description directly via your ATS integration.
- Text: Copy-paste from your source. No need to adjust formatting.
- Upload: Upload a PDF, plain text, Word document, Google Doc, or similar.
Juicebox will then configure a search query for you using your job description. It will analyze suggested filters to match by, which can still be adjusted at any time.
Boolean Filters
Use the boolean expression for any pre-configured search strings.
Select Manually
Selecting filters manually advances you to the “edit your search filters” page directly, allowing you to configure your search from scratch. In most cases, utilizing the prompting method will help you set up your filters faster.
Editing Filters
Regardless of which method you use to get started, you can use the “Edit Filters” page to dive deeper.
Overview
Select the “Filters” button to open the menu. From here, you can review and adjust your search filters as needed.
ATS
Juicebox business plan users can search against the candidates who are already in their ATS. For more on Talent Rediscovery, please visit the article here.
Smart Search Fields
Many of the edit query search bars are smart AI search fields. That means you can enter either a specific entity, or describe what you’re searching for. For example, in the companies search bar, you could enter:
- A specific company: “Google” → Select Google from the dropdown menu
- A description of companies: “energy companies in New York” → Select the “Ask AI” field to activate the smart AI search
Looking for a specific company, but it isn’t appearing in the drop-down? You can also paste in the company LinkedIn URL into the search bar. Then, select the “Search for <URL>” option.
Pinned Skills
By default, Juicebox treats skill requirements differently depending on the number of skills entered:
- When you enter a single skill, Juicebox will treat it as a must-have. Only candidates with that skill will appear.
- When you enter multiple skills, Juicebox will show results that meet at least one of the required skills. By default, this is using OR logic.
- In cases where you have multiple must-have skills, you can click on the pin icon to turn the pin purple and make those skills mandatory. Any pinned skills will now be using AND logic.
In the example below, the search will run as follows: show candidates that are skilled in JavaScript, React.js, or Agile Methodologies (one or more) and Node.js (mandatory).
Excluded Fields
Juicebox has a multitude of smart search fields — including expanding job titles to help find best fit candidates. For example, entering “Software Engineer” will also help you find Principal Software Engineers. However, in some cases, you may want to restrict how broad the search is.
You can solve this by using our “Exclude” field, which is a stop icon that appears when hovering over a job title, skill, industry, or location. In the search below, we are searching for:
- Location: Someone in California, who is not in Los Angeles
- Job Title: Software Engineer, who is not a Software Engineering Manager
Additional Filters
Advanced company filters allow you to construct complex searches based on data such as company funding stage, funding amount raised, investors, and revenue. They work the same as other filters, but contain some additional configuration options.
Investors, Funding, Revenue, and Funding Stage
You can combine a variety of advanced fields to power even more complex searches, such as profiles at a company with $50-$100m in revenue, that has raised $10-$50m in funding, and has worked at a company backed by Sequoia Capital.
If you included a specific field in your initial prompt to trigger advanced filters—like 'Software Engineers at Series B startups'—those filters will already be applied.
Company + Funding Stage
Want to find profiles who were early at certain companies? Enter your preferred companies, select the “Funding Stage” drop-down, and configure your desired funding stage. This will show you profiles that were at your selected companies at a specific stage.
Creating a Preset
To create your own:
- Click Select Preset next to Locations, Job Titles, Companies, Company Tags, Skills, Repositories, or Universities
- Click Create New Preset
- Name the preset and give it a brief description
- Add fields by:
- Uploading a CSV file
- Typing manually
- Pasting in LinkedIn URLs
- Asking Juicebox AI to build a list using the filter > Save Preset
All members of your organization will be able to use your custom preset in any project or search.
University Filters and Degree Requirements
In the Education tab of the filter panel, you can refine your search based on university background, fields of study, graduation years, and degree level.
You can enter one or more universities into the search bar, apply exclusions, limit by university location, or only select specific fields of study (e.g., all engineering majors, natural sciences, CS).
A key feature of this section also lies in the Degree Requirements setting where you can choose between two modes:
- Regular: Finds candidates who have the specified degree, regardless of where they earned it.
- Nested: Restricts the search to candidates who earned the degree from one of the selected universities. This is ideal when searching for candidates with, for example, a bachelor’s degree, specifically from one of the selected universities (e.g., Ivy League schools, top engineering programs, etc.).
You can further narrow results by minimum and maximum graduation year to target recent grads or experienced alumni.
Power Filters
Juicebox also provides access to Power Filters, which can be used in combination with other search fields. The drop-down at the top allows you to select between “Match Any” and “Match All”, which will treat your power filter selections as OR or AND searches, respectively.
Power filters are split into five primary categories: Diversity, Career Growth, Experiences, Sales Experiences, and Security Clearance. They are continuously expanded and if you have any additional requests for power filters specifically, please submit them here.
Likely to Switch
The 'Likely to Switch' feature offers six different indicators to help assess how open someone may be to new opportunities. You can toggle these signals individually or enable them all at once— perfect for zeroing in on candidates who are most likely to respond with interest. If you hover over any of these with your cursor, you'll see a quick explanation of what AI is doing behind the scenes to generate each signal.
Hiding Inactive Filters
At the bottom of the filter panel, you’ll find a checkbox labeled “Hide inactive filters.” When enabled, this option collapses all unused filter sections, allowing you to focus only on the criteria that are actively applied in your search.
