Filtering and columns

Filter candidates by any field and customize which columns are visible.

The talent pool supports the same filtering system as the position pipeline, adapted for org-wide scope.

Filter bar

Click the filter button above the table to open the filter palette. Available filters include:

  • Built-in properties - source, created date, position, application status
  • Candidate fields - phone, location, LinkedIn, GitHub, or any custom candidate field
  • Application fields - resume, salary expectation, visa sponsorship, or any custom application field

Active filters appear as chips in the toolbar. Click a chip to edit it, or click the X to remove it. Multiple filters combine with AND logic.

Filter operators

Each field type offers appropriate operators:

Field typeOperators
Textcontains, has value, has no value
Selectis, is not, is any of
Numberequals, greater than, less than
Datebefore, after
Booleanis yes, is no
Locationcity contains, country is

Column visibility

Click the Columns button to toggle which columns are visible, drag columns to reorder them, or pin columns to the left.

Three-tier configuration

Column settings follow a three-tier cascade:

  1. Personal override - your browser stores your column preferences per org. Any change you make is saved automatically.
  2. Org default - admins can save a default column layout at Settings → Talent pool that applies to all team members who haven't customized their own.
  3. Hardcoded default - if neither personal nor org config exists, Bringboard shows name, email, source, application count, latest position, status, and created date.
When you've customized your columns, a dot indicator appears on the Columns button. Click Reset to team defaults in the popover footer to go back to the org default.
