26. Combine Keywords with Operators (OR, AND, NOT)
to broaden or limit search results
OR searches: The word OR (capital letters) returns results that include one or
more items in a list. For example, "sales OR marketing OR advertising"
AND searches: The word AND (capital letters) returns results that include all
items in a list. For example, "accountant AND finance AND CPA"
NOT searches: The word NOT (capital letters) immediately before a search term
excludes it from search results. For example, "programmer NOT manager"
Parenthetical searches: Parentheses refine a search with multiple search terms.
For example, "account AND finance NOT (manager OR executive)"
Quoted searches: Quotation marks search for the exact phrase.
For example, "product manager" or "cross-functional collaboration"
