Keyword Tips
Here are some basic keyword tips to help you get the most relevant jobs:
One keyword
To start searching for jobs, you can use a simple and obvious keyword like the company name, skill and job title, etc. E.g. if you are looking for the jobs with the job title of Programmer,
e.g. just type
programmer.
All keywords
You can use more specific keywords to narrow your search.
For example, using
sales representative
instead of
sales will return results that include ALL keywords
sales
and
representative.
Exact phrase
To search for an exact phrase, just put quotation marks around two or more keywords. E.g. to search on
"Software Engineer".
None of the keywords
In order to make sure no job containing the keywords will show up in
the results, you can type a minus sign '-' in front of them. E.g. the search result for
sales -representative
will show
sales
jobs without mentioning of
representative.
Wild card searches
The asterisk (*) can be used for wild card searches. E.g.
Account*
and
Manage*
to find all jobs which have keywords beginning with
Account
or
Manage.
Capitalization
Jobs searches in JobStreet.com are NOT case sensitive. E.g. searching for
software engineer
and
softWare enGineeR will return the same result.
Search "Job title only" By default, your keyword search will be matched against entire job advertisement information which includes job title, job description, skill, company name, etc. If "Job title only" is checked, your keyword search will be matched against job title only. For example, the following shows the matches for "Job title only".
Others
Do not use functional words, such as "a", "an", "the", etc.
Single character keywords are not valid, e.g. "d", "z", "a", etc.
