Advanced job search tips
The search box offers a few options for advanced users to further refine their searches
There are three advanced search options you can use as part of your search phases:
- Exact match – Place " " quotes around a word or phrase to find only jobs containing this exact text. For example: "Project Officer"
- Combine searches − Place an uppercase OR between search phrases to see jobs that match any of them. For example: accounting OR finance
- Exclude from search − Place a - minus sign before words you want excluded from job search results. For example: teacher -primary
Here are some more examples that combine search options:
HR -"recruiting" – HR jobs that do not contain the exact word "recruiting"
"VPSG3" OR office administration – Jobs with the exact word VPSG3 or jobs in office administration
Policy officer -health -school – Policy officer jobs excluding jobs related to health or schools
