Search is the dashboard page you land on (/dash/explore/search). The same filters are available through MCP search or GET /people.

​
Recruiter language

Type a sentence. FreshTalent compiles it to structured filters. Explicit filters always win if both are present. Examples that parse today:
Role families in the app (API values in backticks):

​
Filters

Full query params: GET /people. To browse a company roster instead of a people query, use Companies. For the source and meaning of each flag, see Availability.

​
Exploring

FreshTalent’s AI assesses whether someone looks open to a new employment role now, using profile text and changes observed in the last 30 days. Unchanged openness can qualify without a new edit. People marked Open to work or Between roles are excluded. Routine profile polishing or a completed job move alone is not enough. Hover over or select the badge for an AI explanation. Highlighted text opens the supporting current snapshot or before/after change, with its observation date. See how we detect exploration for the process, a worked example, and how to interpret the evidence.

​
Compact vs full

Open a person for coworkers and similar people (include=coworkers,similar).

​
Role family vs Title

The search bar Role token has two modes: Name + headline keywords do not search job titles. Use Role → Title for that.

​
Export

On a result set, Export (dashboard only). CSV or JSON.

​
Recent searches

The empty Search page shows Recent searches (last 8, this browser) plus recommended queries. Sharing a Search URL reuses the same filters. Persist for the org with POST /queries, or start a Target.

​
The echoed query

Every search returns query — the snake_case object that actually ran. That object is what you:
  • save with POST /queries
  • reuse on GET /people for a repeat graph search
  • adapt the filters for discovery; Target discovery uses a different schema and is not an exact replay of the graph search. See Search query compatibility.
Do not hand-roll filter JSON. Run a search, copy query.

​
From an agent

MCP tool search accepts nl and/or the same structured filters. It returns {slug,s} rows plus the echoed query. See Claude & Cursor.
