It\u2019s hard to believe that we\u2019re more than halfway through the year (seriously, where did the time go\u2026?), which means one thing \u2013 we\u2019re rounding up the latest and greatest product updates over the past month.\n\nSo, what\u2019s new? We\u2019ve introduced a round of updates to SmartMatch, internal job postings, a new shift bidding feature, a whole bunch of widgets to the dashboard, increased customisation in performance reviews and lots more. It\u2019s all here and ready for you to use in-platform \u2013 let\u2019s get to it!\n<h2 id=\"supercharge-your-recruitment-with-the-latest-updates-from-smartmatch\">Supercharge your recruitment with the latest updates from SmartMatch<\/h2>\nWe&#8217;ve made finding top talent easier and faster, and we\u2019re excited to share the next round of exciting new updates to SmartMatch with you. These updates are focused on helping you find even more relevant and interested candidates for newly created jobs.\n<h3 id=\"smartmatch-will-now-check-candidate-interest-levels-for-your-new-jobs-and-auto-shortlist-those-interested\">SmartMatch will now check candidate interest levels for your new jobs and auto-shortlist those interested<\/h3>\nWhen you create a new job in the recruitment module, SmartMatch will check the interest levels of candidates who are auto-shortlisted to roles by sending them a quick email or SMS. From here, candidates can reply with an \u2018Interested\u2019 or \u2018Not Interested\u2019 response.\n\nThis allows the hiring manager to easily identify candidates who are actively interested in the role. When a candidate is interested in your role, hiring managers will receive an email prompt to review the candidate\u2019s profile in the ATS and take the necessary next steps.\n<h3 id=\"customise-smartmatch-searches-job-title-industry-and-keywords\">Customise SmartMatch searches \u2013 Job title, industry and keywords<\/h3>\nNow you can refine your SmartMatch searches by easily updating job titles, industries and keywords for your searches to find the perfect fit.\n<h3 id=\"ai-highlights-upgrade-and-relevant-qualifications\">AI highlights upgrade and relevant qualifications<\/h3>\nLastly, we\u2019ve given our AI highlights an upgrade by providing a summary of the candidate&#8217;s profile and reasons why they are a good match for your role. It also identifies the candidate&#8217;s most relevant education and certifications for the job.\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/help.employmenthero.com\/hc\/en-nz\/sections\/7446246140815-SmartMatch\">Learn more about SmartMatch.<\/a>\n<h2 id=\"introducing-internal-job-postings\">Introducing internal job postings<\/h2>\n<strong>Available for the following HR plans: Standard, Premium, Platinum\u00a0<\/strong>\n\nWanting to hire from within your organisation?
