Boolean Search Fundamentals For Recruiters - GuideProminence
This printable guide was produced to complement the deskside cheat sheets. The guide goes into far more detail on Boolean Logic, including several real life examples.
Boolean search strings in recruiting use keywords grouped into sets that can be combined or excluded using operators like AND and NOT. The order keywords are processed depends on parentheses - terms inside parentheses are evaluated first. For example, the string ("project manager" OR PM) AND budgeting searches for profiles with either "project manager" or PM that also include budgeting, ensuring the search captures synonyms and requires the skill. Without parentheses, PM AND budgeting would be processed before expanding to "project manager", limiting and reducing precision of results.
Boolean search uses specific logic operators like AND, OR, and NOT to help recruiters get more targeted search results when looking for candidates. It allows recruiters to understand the size of the candidate pool and narrow or broaden searches. The main Boolean operators are AND, OR, NOT, quotation marks, and brackets. Used correctly, Boolean search is a powerful recruiting tool to find the most relevant candidates efficiently.

The best keywords should be combined using Boolean operators like AND and OR to search the database and locate relevant information while allowing for variations in terminology. The keywords may need to be refined if the topic changes during research.
