Searching for Records Using Find

The quickest way to find a specific record in your database is with Bullhorn's Find feature, which is located in the upper-left corner of the system. To use Find, you'll need to select the Find icon and then type your search criteria in the text field.

Records that match your search criteria will appear in the drop-down under the Find icon as you type. Only four records of each entity will be visible in the drop-down. Click Enter on your keyboard, or click View Results after you enter your search criteria to jump to a list of the Find results. The Find Results page will display records related to your search, grouped by entity. You are able to control the number of records that display per entity type and can filter and sort the results:

Displaying Recent Records

In Novo, Find displays the last ten records that you searched for and accessed via Find. As you log in and out of the system, Find will remember the records that you accessed. This is maintained by your internet browser's history on each device you use.
