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:
Division: To search for all jobs within a specific Division, select
the desired Division from the pull-down list.
Category: To search for all jobs within a specific category,
select the desired category from the pull-down list.
City: To search for all jobs within a specific city, select
the desired city from the pull-down list.
Province/State: To search for all jobs within a specific province
or state, select the desired province or state 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.
