Job Finder and Matching Agent
Job Finder and Matching Agent
This AI agent acts as an interactive job search assistant, guiding candidates through a conversational flow to identify relevant openings based on their skills, preferences, and experience. Instead of making candidates scroll through pages of listings, the agent narrows down opportunities through a few targeted questions and captures their details for recruiter follow-up. Ideal for job boards, staffing agencies, and corporate career sites that want to convert passive browsers into active applicants.

A conversational job finder agent turns your careers page from a passive listing into an active candidate conversion tool.
Job board and career site visitors typically convert at 8-12%, meaning the vast majority leave without applying. A conversational job finder agent guides visitors to relevant roles and captures their interest in context, pushing conversion rates to 25-40%. For a careers page generating 10,000 monthly visitors, that is the difference between 800 and 3,000 candidate leads per month. According to CareerBuilder research, 60% of job seekers abandon applications due to complexity; a conversational interface eliminates that friction.
Every candidate who finds and applies for a role through your own career site is a candidate you did not have to source through paid job boards. With average cost-per-click on job board ads ranging from $0.50 to $1.50 and cost-per-applicant from $10 to $40, improving organic conversion directly reduces sourcing spend. Organizations that deploy conversational career site agents typically report 15-25% reductions in their external sourcing budget within the first quarter.
Traditional job board applications give recruiters a resume and a job title. A conversational job finder captures structured preference data: what roles interest the candidate, what locations work for them, their salary expectations, and why they are looking for a change. This intelligence helps recruiters personalize outreach and increases response rates by 30-50% compared to generic recruiter emails, according to LinkedIn Talent Solutions benchmarks.

features
Capabilities that turn passive job board visitors into engaged, qualified applicants by making the search process effortless.
The agent collects candidate preferences across multiple dimensions: job function, industry vertical, geographic location, salary range, employment type (full-time, contract, remote), and experience level. These filters work together to surface only the most relevant openings, dramatically reducing the time candidates spend searching and increasing the likelihood they apply.
Rather than requiring candidates to type keywords into a search bar and sift through results, the agent conducts a guided discovery conversation. This approach is especially effective on mobile devices, where traditional job board filters are cumbersome. It also captures candidates who may not know the exact job title to search for but can describe what they want to do.
The agent collects candidate information at the moment of highest interest, right when they have found a role that excites them. This timing produces significantly higher conversion rates than generic "sign up for job alerts" prompts. Recruiters receive leads that come with specific role interest attached, not just a name and email address.
When no current openings match a candidate's preferences perfectly, the agent can register them for future alerts. It captures their criteria and contact details, building a segmented talent pool that recruiters can activate when new positions open. This converts what would be a lost visitor into a future pipeline candidate.

FAQs
A search bar requires candidates to know exactly what to search for and then manually filter results. The AI agent asks a few guided questions and surfaces the most relevant roles automatically. This is especially effective for candidates who are exploring options, switching industries, or browsing from mobile devices where traditional search and filter interfaces are difficult to use.
Yes. Tars connects with Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho CRM, and Google Sheets natively. For dedicated ATS platforms, integrations through Zapier or direct webhooks route candidate data and role-interest signals into systems like Greenhouse, Lever, or iCIMS. Candidate records include which specific roles they matched with and expressed interest in.
Tars is SOC 2 compliant with all data encrypted in transit and at rest. The platform supports GDPR consent workflows, data retention controls, and secure access management. For organizations with specific data residency requirements, Tars provides options to meet regional compliance standards.
Yes. The agent's role catalog can be updated as positions open and close. For organizations with high-volume or rapidly changing requisitions, the conversation flow can be designed to route candidates by department, function, or location rather than specific job titles, ensuring the experience stays relevant even as individual listings change daily.
Absolutely. The conversational interface is fully optimized for mobile and actually outperforms traditional job board interfaces on smaller screens. Candidates tap through options rather than typing into filter fields, which is faster and more intuitive on phones. Given that over 67% of job seekers search on mobile devices, this mobile-first design is critical for capturing the largest possible candidate pool.
The agent can register the candidate for job alerts by capturing their preferences and contact information. When matching roles open in the future, recruiters can proactively reach out with a personalized opportunity. This turns a dead-end visitor session into a future pipeline candidate, so no traffic to your careers page is wasted.
Yes. The agent can be shared as a standalone link that works anywhere: job board postings, LinkedIn ads, email campaigns, QR codes at career fairs, or social media posts. Every channel feeds into the same centralized candidate pipeline, giving recruiters a unified view regardless of where the candidate originated.
The agent uses the preference data collected during the conversation (role type, industry, location, experience level, skills) to filter and surface matching positions from your active openings. The matching criteria and weighting are fully configurable by your team, so you can prioritize geographic proximity for field roles or specific skill matches for technical positions.
