Search · Natural language 

Find the candidate you already have.

Ask for who you need the way you’d brief a colleague. Search looks across CVs, calls, outreach sentiment and every field in Seven20, and brings back the people who fit, without leaving the platform.

features and benefits

Search everything you know about a candidate.

Ask the way you’d brief a colleague.

Search works out what you mean and finds the people who fit, so recruiters don’t need to know which field holds what.

Skills and experience extracted from a candidate CV in Seven20 Search

The CV, not just the fields.

Skills, experience and history read from the CV itself, alongside the fields your team keeps up to date.

Searchable call transcript highlighting a candidate’s interest in relocating

What was said on the call.

Calls are searchable too, so a candidate who mentioned relocating or an interest in fintech turns up even if nobody updated their record. 

Candidates ranked by reply sentiment in Seven20 Search

How they responded.

Search on sentiment from outreach and replies, for example “candidates who replied positively in the last three months”, so the warmest people come first.

Standard and custom Seven20 fields set as searchable

Every field, including yours.

Standard fields, custom fields, skills and tags. Any field in Seven20 can be made searchable, including the one you added last year for a single desk.

Search result with options to add to a shortlist or a Sequencer sequence

Built in, not bolted on.

Search sits inside Seven20. Open a result, add it to a shortlist or hot list, or enrol it in a Sequencer sequence without changing screens.

Confidential search restricted by Salesforce record access

Only what you’re allowed to see.

Results respect the record access your admins already set in Salesforce, so a confidential search or a restricted desk stays restricted.

The best match is rarely the person with the right keyword in a field. It’s the one who mentioned it on a call, or replied warmly to your last message. Search reads all of it.

How it works

From the question to the shortlist, without leaving Seven20.

Standalone search tools mean another login, another screen and an export to get results back into your CRM. Here is what it looks like when search is part of the platform.

01

Ask in plain English.

Type the brief as you’d say it to a colleague.

 The AI reads the request. The recruiter decides who goes forward.

Results open the same Seven20 records your team already works in, and access follows your Salesforce permissions. Search runs on an index of your Seven20 data, held in Seven20-managed storage in your region under your existing contract and DPA.

02

Search reads everything.

CVs, calls, outreach sentiment and fields, in one search.

03

Review the people who fit.

Every result is a Seven20 record, one click away.

04

Act on them.

Add to a hot list, shortlist against a job, or enrol straight into a Sequencer sequence. No export, no spreadsheet.

The full Seven20 solution.

Frequently asked questions

  • Standard Salesforce search matches keywords in fields. Search understands a brief written in plain English, and looks beyond fields into CVs, calls and how candidates have responded to outreach.

  • CVs, calls, outreach and reply sentiment, and the fields in Seven20, including your custom fields.

  • No. It finds the people who fit the brief. The recruiter chooses who goes forward.

  • No. Search is part of Seven20, so every result is a record your team already works in, with nothing to export or sync by hand.

  • No. Results respect the access rules your admins already set in Salesforce.

  • Your records stay in your own Salesforce org. Search runs on an index of that data in Seven20-managed storage on Amazon Web Services, in your region. Both are covered by your existing Seven20 contract and DPA, so there is no second vendor and no second security review.

  • Not at launch.

  • For now, natural language AI search works with English, but the regular search function works in any language.

  • Recruiters and sourcers. Find people through what they said and how they responded, not just what’s in a field.

    Team leads. See the warmest candidates for a role first.

    System admins. Custom fields become searchable without a rebuild, and access follows the permissions you already manage.

    Leadership. More placements from data you’ve already paid to collect.
