BOOLEAN OPERATORS
AND + …Limits search, use to include required skills, experience technologies or titles
OR | …At least one is required, more than one is returned. It is good practice to always use parentheses around “OR” statements but all search engines / web sites do not require it. Returned search will have at least one of the following and if they have multiple, it will return as well.
NOT – …Excludes a specific term from the search. Reduces the results.
Boolean Operators are an operation that follows the rules of Boolean algebra; each operator and the result take one of two values.
The base skill in most research/sourcing involved in Recruiting involves Boolean Search.
Sourcing is Research and Networking to find People for your Clients or Business

BOOLEAN SEARCH MODIFIERS
ASTERISK* - Use on most resume databases and non-internet search engines. It will return the highlighted word beginning with the root. (Manag*) (eg. Manager, Management, Manage)
(PARENTHESES) – Use to encapsulate OR statements and execute them properly. Or statements won’t run as intended if you do not put in parentheses (eg. AUDIT OR SOX OR ICFR)
“QUOTATION MARKS” - Use when searching for exact phrase or word, or some search engines will split them up. (eg. “Assistant Director”)
NEAR - Washington NEAR(DC OR D.C.)

Search with an exact phrase - Put quotation marks around words "[any word]“
Search by file type - Search for specific types of files, such as PDFs, PPTs, or XLS, by adding filetype: and the 3-letter file abbreviation.
Search numbers in a range – Good for Zip Codes - (20006…20008)
