Filters are a great way to sort through your applicants by their attributes and responses collected from the position form and/or the data collection form(s). You can also filter by job or stage.
Filters can be used on both the Applicant Table and Universal Applicant View. Both screens will have a Filter by Applicant Data button. The Universal Applicant View will also have a Filter by Jobs/Stages button. The functionality of both filters works the same.

Best Practice: Groom Your Applicant Data Saved Filters
Filters by Jobs/Stages are user-specific. If you save a Job or Stage filter under your user profile, no one else will see that filter. However, Applicant Data filters are account-wide, so everyone within your company account will see these saved filters.
Since everyone on your team can see Applicant Data saved filters, it is best to delete any unused Applicant Data filters and keep the list clean. We recommend starting off with a few team filters instead of everyone making their own one immediately. Also, consider using some naming convention to keep the list organized ie. Department - filter name.
