Digest #27 — Introducing new search filters and navigation!
Introducing Search Filters!
Today we're excited to share search filters, our new tool for finding friends and collaborators on read.cv! You can give it a try by pressing ⌘K, or find it in our redesigned sidebar.
We designed search filters to help with situations where you might be looking for a collaborator with a specific work experience or who lives in a certain timezone. In just a few seconds you can make a query for "Product designers based in California with 2+ years of experience".
Lastly, we also redesigned our navigation to make it easier to get around. You now have a persistent way to get to Explore, Open Roles, Search, Replies, and Following. Plus a helpful back button.
We hope you use search filters to find your next collaborator or team member. As always we'd love to get your feedback on Twitter or Discord!
