If
we
search
for
resumes
in
a
search
engine,
we
can
narrow
our
results
to
only
those
types
of
files
that
are
common
resume
formats.
Common
file
types
for
resume
are:
PDF,
DOC,
DOCX,
HTML,
HTM,
and
PHP.
We
can
also
search
for
attendee
lists
for
conferences,
events,
and
meetings
of
talented
tech
people.
“software
development”
attendees
(intitle:directory
OR
inurl:directory
OR
intitle:list
OR
inurl:list
OR
intitle:roster
OR
inurl:roster)
@microsoft.com
Attendee
and
member
lists
are
very
often
saved
in
Excel,
we
can
use
a
search
string
with
a
command
to
specifically
target
Excel
files
like
in
this
sample:
filetype:xls
(attendees
OR
members
OR
participants)
(roster
OR
list)

Search
for
content
by
doing
an
image
search
in
your
favorite
browser.
Image
searches
are
simple
and
quick.
Use
some
quick
keywords
and
adjust
a
setting
to
only
show
pictures
of
faces
–
that
way
you
get
real
people.
There’s
even
a
handy
Chrome
extension
from
Google
or
a
reverse
image
search
by
TinEye.
If
you
want
to
find
out
more
about
attendees
at
conferences
and
events,
be
sure
to
use
sites
like
Meetup.com
and
Lanyrd.com
to
see
who
is
attending
and
speaking
all
kinds
of
conferences
worldwide.
You
can
also
use
sites
like
CardBrowser.com,
if
you
don’t
mind
paying
for
the
information.
