Stop searching. Start finding best-fit candidate in seconds with Magic Search

Stop translating real hiring needs into keywords and filters. With Magic Search present in your applicant tracking system, you describe the ideal candidate exactly how you would explain it to a colleague, using text or voice. Seniority, background, career moves, personal interests, or industry context are all understood naturally, without any setup or training.

Behind the scenes, Atlas uses generative AI to interpret intent, nuance, and priorities. That means you spend less time constructing searches and more time reviewing candidates who genuinely fit what you asked for.

Not every requirement carries the same weight, and Magic Search is built to reflect that. You guide Atlas on which criteria are essential and which are simply beneficial, shaping results without rigid filters or endless revisions.

This prioritization ensures candidates are evaluated the same way you would assess them yourself. Core requirements are respected first, while secondary signals help surface the strongest overall matches. The outcome is a shortlist that feels intentional, accurate, and aligned with real hiring decisions.

Strong candidates are often hidden outside the resume. Magic Search looks across everything your company has seen, heard, read, or written about a candidate to build a complete picture of fit. That includes resumes, notes, calls, messages, references, and external research into companies and industries.

This depth means recruiters are no longer limited to surface-level data. Atlas understands experience, context, and real-world evidence, helping you uncover candidates who may never appear through traditional search alone.

Magic Search is designed to reduce recruiting noise, not create more of it. Instead of returning long lists of “possible” candidates, Atlas presents a short, focused shortlist of people who genuinely fit your requirements.

Each candidate is scored with clear match percentages so you can quickly understand relative fit. This allows you to move faster, present with confidence, and avoid additional vetting before sharing profiles with clients. When candidates appear in the results, you already know they belong there.

Every result returned by Magic Search comes with a clear explanation of why that candidate fits your requirements. Atlas highlights the strongest signals, explains how they align with your priorities, and shows where the evidence came from.

Trust the recommendation instantly and still dig deeper when needed. With direct links back to original interviews, notes, messages, or source material, you stay fully in control of the narrative. This makes it easier to move fast internally and present candidates to clients with clarity and confidence.

Hiring criteria evolve as you learn more, and Magic Search is built for that reality. After your initial results, you can quickly adjust the search criteria, change priorities, or refine expectations without rewriting the entire request.

With one click, Atlas re-runs the search using your updated guidance and returns a refreshed shortlist. This keeps recruiters in momentum, making it easy to explore alternatives, respond to client feedback, or pressure-test assumptions without losing clarity or control.
