Custom Default Columns
I know users can already select extra columns to add to the default ones in candidate search results, but having these extra columns remain once they've been added & not disappear again once you log out would be a massive help.

This is an essential function required. Especially around distance from candidate home to client - for hybrid working,

This really is essential

Crucial change.

This really is essential. Aside from individuals having their own way of working, teams will have differing requirements e.g. Perm Consultants have no need to see temp-specific information and vice versa. The amount of time it takes to set preferences, only to have to repeat the action, just counteracts any efficiencies that we've gained through moving to Firefish. If it was possible to save an amended search, then we could just about make do...but sadly that's not possible either!

It would be helpful to be able to change which columns show on the potential matches tabs etc on the Job Record, i.e. be able to view the candidate's current job title or other options that are available from the candidate search view.

It would be great if all new search results could be displayed in your own personal preference. I.e. always show current company, desired salary but not contract rates.

Being able to tailor the columns to your own preference would be a massive benefit rather than having the default ones such as "Owner" each time.

Paul Clark commented
We should be able to set the view we chose apposed to having to change it everytime we go in.

Gareth commented
Yes i agree 1000%

Stephen McKay commented
Agree with this 100%. Having to manually select these each time is slowing things down.

Rob Pearson commented
It would be good if this could be set up per user, as each consultant will want to pull different data

This suggestion has a lot of support and appears to have been here untouched for a long period of time, is there a reason this hasn't been implemented?

the defaults are different for every company so it would be beneficial to be able for a super user to default what they want for their own business, the very fact the main detail isn't on the default is baffling (mobile number)

Loz commented
completely agree with all the comments - particularly in jobs - when you return to the jobs dashboard you get open & closed jobs - not that helpful
It would also be really useful if thee default extended to the sort function, so that you can always choose to have (any) results you like always displayed in a particular way -

100% agree, not just for candidates but on all search functions including jobs.

Completely agree. The defaults are not that helpful when it comes to jobs and adverts to do varies tasks. Never known a system always go back to default so much.

I always have to change the default selections e.g. I include mobile number as it helps with identifying their current location, I always untick 2- 3 boxes as it's not relevant to our searches. As we are internationaly, we would like to see Nationality but it's not an option in the list.

Whilst I appreciate that we can manually select different search fields, it would be more beneficial if agencies could select fields relevant to their recruiters. Also the town name would be hugely beneficial when running a search for a specific candidate who has a common name, Alan Smith for example. Agencies will have multiple candidates with the same name and it would be far easier and less time consuming to select the correct candidate if their town appeared next to their name.
