Requirement Understanding
Searching Resume
When Searching for Resume, the recruiter must
use either of the following methods to locate a
resume.
Keyword Search In this method, the recruiter
looks for a particular resume through Job Title,
Position Name or Specific Skill or Function in a
Job Board (Monster, Dice, Career Builder). This
method is useful particularly for any functional
position and low level jobs (Technician,
Business Analyst and Project Managers etc.)
Boolean Search
Boolean Search
Boolean searches allow you to combine words and phrases using the
words AND, OR AND NOT (otherwise known as Boolean operators) to
limit, widen, or define your search. Most Internet search engines and
Web directories default to these Boolean search parameters anyway,
but a good Web searcher should know how to use basic Boolean
operators.
Examples
Using AND Operator, search results are narrowed, as explained
below
(Portland) AND (Oregon)
Using OR Operator, search results are broadened, as explained
below
(Dog) OR (Wolf).
Using NOT Operator, search results are narrowed, as explained
below
(Manager) NOT (Program)
