Boolean Operators Cheat Sheet
Boolean Search:
This search type is used for building a
logically structured search string of the keywords and/or phrases. The results
of the search will be based on the words entered in the KEYWORDS field and the
logical operators included. The KEYWORDS field may include one or more logical
operators. A list of the support logical operators is listed below along with a
couple examples.
Here are the
boolean search "operators":
1) Operators are: AND, OR, NOT, NEAR
2) Wild Card is: *
Example:
(Orange or Apple or "Apple Juice") and (Fruit near
Juice) and Banana and "*berry" and not"Cherry"
NOTE: while using "not" operator, please do not give any
space after NOT and wrap the keyword with ("") double quotes.
Notes:
1) If you are searching for a keyword which has more than one word
(ex: Apple Juice) you need to wrap it in quotes.
2) If you are doing a partial word search (ex: *berry) you need to
wrap it in quotes. As you know "*berry" will match Raspberry,
Strawberry, etc.
NOTE: We do our best to highlight the keywords you entered in your
search when you are reviewing the details of each job. Please note that the
highlighting is not part of the search mechanism itself and is not always
perfect due to the complexity of some of the search types available. If you
find job results that don’t have any keywords highlighted, it does not
necessarily mean that the result is not valid.
