Employer’s Zone button on the top right corner.

This guide is divided into three sections to help you quickly locate information that is relevant to you:
 Resume Database (Resdex)
 Job Posting & Response Management
 Account Management
Depending on your active subscriptions and user level, your post-login page may look different.

2 GETTING STARTED
The first thing a ‘Super-user’ needs to do is create a ‘Sub-user’ account. This is critical because certain
features (such as Resdex) can be accessed only by a sub-user. Super-user can add a sub-user from
‘Mange Subuser’ interface. Once this is done, sub-user can then post jobs or search on Resdex.

3 RESUME DATABASE (RESDEX)

Naukri.com has a large database of millions of jobseekers that can be searched across various
parameters such as industries, functions, locations, experience levels and many more. This section will
get you started on how to use Resdex. There are five types of search forms. You can choose any of
these forms based on your need and convenience.

3.1 SEARCH

3.1.1 ADVANCED SEARCH

Advanced Search is the most comprehensive search form. It has various search parameters such as:

Keyword Text Designation Details

Experience UG/PG Qualification
Salary Year of passing out
Location Details Institute Name
Functional Area Affirmative Action
Industry Area Women Candidates
Employer Special Ability Candidates

3.1.2 IT SEARCH
IT Search is specially designed for your IT (Information Technology) hiring needs. Using IT Search you can
find IT candidates with specific years of experience in each of the various IT skills. IT search is combined
with Advanced Search to let you specify other search parameters. For example, IT Search allows you to

specifically find candidates with more than 2 years’ experience in CoreJava AND have more than 5 years’
experience in C++.

3.1.3 ROLE SEARCH

Role Search allows you to search for candidates by ‘role’. In an organization people may work in multiple
departments or functional areas but may be assigned different roles. For example accounting may have
an Accountant, Taxation Manager, Chartered Accountant etc. Role Search allows you to search for
candidates by these roles in a given Functional Area.

3.1.4 MY SEARCH
My Search can be used to customize search options and add search parameters that you use the most or
remove the search parameters that may be irrelevant for your needs.

3.1.5 ‘CANDIDATE ACTIVE IN LAST’ SEARCH OPTION

Using ‘Candidates Active in Last’ dropdown lets you choose candidates depending on how recently they
have been looking for a job. That is, do you want only those candidates who have been actively looking
for a job very recently, or do you want candidates who were actively looking for a job anytime in the last
one year? That is an important question to answer to make your search effective, and that is what this
dropdown helps you answer. It narrows down your search to find the right candidate without you
having to paginate unnecessarily to the later pages.

For example -
 Specifying an exact time frame like Last 7 days enables you to find only the relevant candidates
who have been active anytime in the last 7 days. Similarly, specifying a time frame like Last 1
Year will show you all the relevant candidates who have been active anytime in the last 1 year.
 Specifying time duration like 3 months – 6 months will show only resumes that were active
between 3 months ago and 6 months ago. Similarly, selecting 12 months+ will find only those
candidates whose were actively looking for a job more than a year ago. This allows you to reach
out to Passive Candidates - people who may have got a job last year, but might be looking for a
change now - more effectively.
 Specifying All Resumes will search in all the resumes irrespective of their last active date. This
will show you the highest number of results but it may also include some candidates who were
looking for a job, say, more than 2 years ago. This option is useful for finding candidates having
niche profiles.

Powerful Search by Location

You can search candidates by their current location as well as

their preferred location. The iMap feature helps you include
candidates from neighboring locations as well.

3.2 SEARCH RESULT PAGE

Once you perform search using any of the above search form, you are directed to Search Result Page.
Search Result Page provides the ranked lilist,
st, by Relevance, of candidates for the specified job criteria.
You can also rank results by ‘Last Active Date’ and by ‘Freshness’ of a jobseeker’s profile.

You can further refine search results by using ““Search within Search” or by Filter by Roles and by Salary.
One can look at resumes which have a profile similar to the ones which appeared in search results.

resumes that are similar to the one you liked. You will be surprised how
