# Find a CV in your CV database

Search the CV database by name, or show the filters to keep only the people with some skills or labels. Click a label in the list to see everyone who has it. Export the list as a CSV file.

## Search by name

1. Open “CV database” in the menu.
2. Click “Search” and type part of the person's first or last name.

Capital letters, accents, hyphens and apostrophes don't matter: "oneil" finds O'Neil.

## Filter by skills or labels

1. Click “Show filters” at the top of the list. Two filters show: “Skills” and “Labels”.
2. Click a filter and tick one or more items.

With several items ticked, the list shows the people who have at least one of them. With both filters set, a person must match both.

To clear a filter, open it again and untick the items.

## Show everyone with a label

Click a label in the “Labels” column. The list keeps only the people with this label, and the filters show so you can see it and clear it.

## Sort the list

Click a column title to sort by it: the name, the “Labels” or “Added on”. Click again to reverse the order. The list starts with the people added most recently.

## Choose the columns

Click “Customize columns” at the top of the list, then tick the columns to show. You can hide “Skills”, “Labels” and “Added on”.

## Export the list

1. Search or filter the list, if you want only some people.
2. Click “Export” at the top right.
3. Tick the columns to export and click “Confirm”.

You get a CSV file with every person who matches your search and filters, not only the ones on the page. Excel, Numbers and Google Sheets open it.


## Common questions

### Can I search by skill or by job title?

The search finds names only. To find people by skill, use the “Skills” filter.

### Why is Export greyed out?

The list is empty: there is nobody to export.

### How do I find the people of one import?

On the import page, click “See them” next to the import. The list shows only these people, with “Show everyone” to see everyone again. See [Import CVs from a spreadsheet](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/import-cvs-from-a-spreadsheet).
