Get better matches
Five habits that make your searches sharper.
FoundOne reads your search the way a colleague would. The clearer the brief, the better the list.
Five habits
- Say what they did, not only their title. "Built a finance team" beats "Head of Finance".
- Add one must-have. A language, a sector or a location.
- Name someone as a reference. "Someone like Hannah Clarke" uses her profile as the starting point.
- Skip the filler. Words like "great" or "motivated" don't help the search.
- Refine instead of starting over. Add a word to the search you already have.
When a result surprises you, open it and read why it matched. It often shows you a better way to ask.
