Search Capabilities Audit
Audit
Midtown Athletic Clubs’ job search capabilities offer a solid foundation, particularly with its comprehensive keyword search and effective location-based filters. The ability to perform multi-lingual searches enhances accessibility for diverse candidates.
However, the absence of auto-suggest, Boolean search support, synonym recognition, and a spelling checker limits the search engine’s sophistication. Candidates must rely on precise keywords, which may lead to missed opportunities, especially if they make typos or use alternate job titles. Enhancing these features would significantly improve search efficiency and user satisfaction.
Best Practices
A robust job search function is fundamental to a positive candidate experience, as job seekers expect search engines to be intelligent, flexible, and responsive.
An effective search should accommodate spelling mistakes, recognize synonyms, and suggest relevant results, ensuring that even imperfect searches yield meaningful opportunities. Predictive search, type-ahead suggestions, and natural language processing enhance usability, allowing candidates to find suitable roles without frustration.
A search engine that understands context and intent reduces drop-off rates and increases application conversions.
