Move beyond basic keywords<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Use websites like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.acronymfinder.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AcronymFinder.com<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wikipedia.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wikipedia.org<\/a> to more fully grasp the particularities of a search you might not be familiar with<\/li>\n<li>You can also use thematic search engines, like <a href=\"http:\/\/yippy.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Yippy<\/a>, to perform categorised searches<\/li>\n<li>On large job aggregators, like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.indeed.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Indeed<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simplyhired.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SimplyHired<\/a>, you can search by job title<\/li>\n<li>If you want to search by company name, you can use websites like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zoominfo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ZoomInfo<\/a> (which has a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zoominfo.com\/business\/products\/zoominfo-ce\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">free community edition<\/a>), <a href=\"http:\/\/www.data.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Data.com<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LinkedIn<\/a><\/li>\n<li>If you use pinpoint search strings on specifics like job titles, company names, skills, licenses, and locations, you can dramatically increase your number of useful results. But you should make sure to aim for between 250 and 1000 results to maximise relevance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>2. Natural language search<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>To find the candidates you want, you have to be able to understand the way they talk on the Internet when they describe themselves<\/li>\n<li>Using phrasing that contains pronouns and action words (&#8220;I configured X,&#8221; &#8220;I delivered presentations to clinical,&#8221; etc.) will point you in the direction of relevant resumes and profiles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>3. Explicit and implicit search<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>By selectively eliminating keywords, you will come across candidates that fit your search but may have neglected to include those keywords in their self-descriptions<\/li>\n<li>This can also work when searching by company name because some candidates will use abbreviations of company names instead of the company&#8217;s full name<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>4. Diversity search<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>While not every candidate promotes his or her diversity online, searches\u00a0for &#8220;natural language&#8221; phrases relating to ethnicities and languages can be useful for your recruiters<\/li>\n<li>You can also search for diverse universities and professional associations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>5. Finding\u00a0relevant communities<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>You can search for many technical and other communities to find information about individual talent<\/li>\n<li>Some sites are best searched by using website-specific native searches, like <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">GitHub<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.meetup.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Meetup<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Sites like <a href=\"http:\/\/stackoverflow.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Stack Overflow<\/a>, however, can be more effectively searched by using Google.com site-specific searches (&#8220;site:&#8221;)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>6. Social media: Facebook, Twitter, Google<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>In early 2015, Shane McCusker created an <a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/intelligence-search\/dipfggodcibdmflidbceoaanadclgomm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">easy-to-use free web tool to search various Facebook fields<\/a>, allowing you to find people much more effectively than by using Facebook&#8217;s native search<\/li>\n<li>Twitter&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search-advanced\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">advanced search<\/a>\u00a0can help you to find people who are talking about a particular thing in a particular location<\/li>\n<li>Google+ has its own native search, but X-ray on Google is often easier \u2013 site-specific search again: &#8220;site:plus.google.com (&#8220;CPA&#8221; OR accountant)&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>7. Easy custom search<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>You can use the free Chrome extension <a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/unsupported\/fjefgkhmchopegjeicnblodnidbammed?hl=en-US\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Search Bar<\/a>\u00a0to put a large number of custom search engines at your fingertips in a toolbar format<\/li>\n<li>By noting where the variable text of your search appears in a URL (<a href=\"http:\/\/webmii.com\/people?n=%22glenn%20gutmacher%22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/webmii.com\/people?n=<\/a><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/webmii.com\/people?n=%22glenn%20gutmacher%22\">&#8220;<\/a><\/strong><b><a href=\"http:\/\/webmii.com\/people?n=%22glenn%20gutmacher%22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">glenn%20gutmacher&#8221;<\/a>)<\/b>, you can create and save easily accessible custom searches by replacing the variable text with &#8220;%s&#8221; (http:\/\/webmii.com\/people?n=<strong>\u201c%s&#8221;<\/strong>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>8. Competitive Intelligence<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Your recruiters get intelligence from candidates and business people in the field all the time, but some great free tools can help you to identify companies that are being acquired, laying off staff, or experiencing financial issues<\/li>\n<li>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.owler.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Owler<\/a>, you can create custom company lists and receive news about these specific companies through the web or email<\/li>\n<li>Industry-specific sites can help you narrow down your intelligence further, e.g., <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fiercepharma.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">FiercePharma<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dealbreaker.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dealbreaker<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fiercemarkets.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">FierceMarkets<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.glassdoor.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Glassdoor<\/a> can give you a valuable point of view of a company&#8217;s employees<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>9.
