+ | **and**\\ \\ | ||
+ | Using ' | ||
+ | \\ Example | ||
+ | Java and Delphi | ||
+ | |||
+ | **near**\\ \\ | ||
+ | There is also ' | ||
+ | \\ Examples | ||
+ | Java near Delphi | ||
+ | "Java Developer" | ||
+ | |||
+ | **not**\\ \\ | ||
+ | Java and not Delphi means that Java must be found but there must be no | ||
+ | instance of Delphi. | ||
+ | \\ Example | ||
+ | Java not Delphi | ||
+ | |||
+ | **or**\\ \\ | ||
+ | Java or Delphi means that either Java or Delphi must be found. | ||
+ | \\ Example | ||
+ | Java or Delphi | ||
+ | |||
+ | **multi word phrase** | ||
+ | to search for a multi-word phrase use double quotes | ||
+ | \\ Example | ||
+ | |||
+ | "java developer" | ||
+ | "java developer" | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Hitcount**\\ \\ | ||
+ | Searching for the word ' | ||
+ | finds - it takes no notice of the number of times found. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you add 'and @hitcount> | ||
+ | Yes. | ||
+ | \\ Example: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Java and hitcount> | ||
+ | |||
+ | will return when Java is found 3 or more times within the CV. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Any **word sequence** needs to be in double inverted commas. | ||
+ | \\ Example: | ||
+ | |||
+ | "Java Developer" | ||
+ | |||
+ | To look for multiple hits of a word use: | ||
+ | |||
+ | and @hitcount> | ||
+ | |||
+ | where * is a number. | ||
+ | You can use any relational operator = > < >= <= | ||
+ | |||
+ | java and @hitcount> | ||
+ | will only return records with more than 2 counts of java | ||
+ | |||
+ | "java developer" | ||
+ | |||
+ | will only return records with equal to or less than 3 counts of java developer | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | To use specially treated characters such as &, |, ^, #, @, $, (, ), in a query, enclose your query in quotation marks ("). | ||
+ | |||
+ | To search for a word or phrase containing quotation marks, enclose the entire phrase in quotation marks and then double the quotation marks around the word or words you want to surround with quotes. | ||
+ | \\ Example | ||
+ | " | ||
+ | searches for World-Wide Web or " | ||
+ | |||
+ | The wildcard character (*) can match words with a given prefix. | ||
+ | \\ Example | ||
+ | esc* | ||
+ | matches the terms " | ||
