Experience Filters

Refine your results by filtering based on experience timelines:

• Time in Current Job Role

• Time in Current Company

• Total Work Experience

Each filter allows you to set a Min and Max for years and months.

Example:

• Find people with at least 2 years in their current role

• Filter out profiles with more than 5 years total experience

• Target people who are new in their current company (e.g., < 6 months)

Common Mistake: Using higher range for minimum

If you set the Max value lower than the Min value in any experience filter, like Time in Current Job Title, Time in Current Company, or Total Work Experience, you’ll see an error.

You may receive a “The Max should be higher than Min” error.

Fix it: Make sure the Max value is greater than the Min value before applying the filter.
