To perform a search:
Pinpoint a job posting by defining the search criteria that match your
ideal opportunity. You may combine pull-down list selections with text
entries.
Pull-down lists:
Location: To search for all jobs within a specific Location, select
the desired Location from the pull-down list.
Job Function: To search for all jobs within a specific Job Function,
select the desired Job Function from the pull-down list.
Text entry field:
The text-entry field (Keyword) supports Wildcard searching. You must use
an asterisk * as a wildcard character and it must be used within
quotation marks (e.g., "publish*" will return publish, publishing,
publisher, etc.).
It is important to note that when using the text-entry field (Keyword)
you must identify the type of search by selecting from the pull-down list
of search types.
Any of the words:
If you choose this type, the system will search for job descriptions that
contain any of the words you have entered.
All of the words:
If you choose this type, the system will search for job descriptions that
contain all of the words you have entered.
Exact phrase:
If you choose this type, the system will search for job descriptions that
contain all of the words you have entered, in the exact order you have
entered them.
Boolean Search: If you choose this type, you may enter Boolean
searches in the text entry field (Keyword). To use any Boolean operators,
you must first select Boolean Search from the pull-down menu.
- To specify words that must all appear in the search results, use and or
& between the words (e.g., publishing and editor).
- To specify words any of which may appear in the search results, use or
or | between the words (e.g., publishing or editor).
- To specify a word that must not appear in the search results, use and not
before the word (e.g., publishing and not editor).
- You can utilize parenthesis () to separate keyword subsets (e.g., (publishing
or editor) and magazine).
- In order to get expression matching, use quotation marks. For example,
to find project manager positions, search on "project manager".
This will return incidences where project and manager are adjacent to
each other in the description field.
