How Google Works

There are N number of resumes on the internet, but there are some keywords that are very common among them. Consider this list and you will see what I mean.

• Objective• Summary• Education• Additional Skills• References• Phone • Email

Let's do a few searches to see this in action.

Google Advance Search Operators:

• intitle• inurl• define• phonebook• (~) tilde• (-) exclude• (OR) “|” (Vertical Bar)• Filetype • .. (Range Operator)

intitle:

The query intitle:term restricts results to documents containing term in the title. For instance, [ java developer intitle:resume ] will return documents that mention the word “resume” in their titles, and mention the words “java” and “developer” anywhere in the document (title or not).

Note: There must be no space between the intitle: and the following word.

inurl:

If you include inurl: in your query, Google will restrict the results to documents containing that word in the URL. For instance,

[ inurl:healthy eating ] will return documents that mention the words “healthy” intheir URL, and mention the word “eating” anywhere in the document.

Note: There must be no space between the inurl: and the following word.

Example: inurl:healthy eatingwww.indianchild.com/Recipes/healthy-eating-tips.htm

Phonebook:

If you start your query with phonebook: Google shows all public U.S. residence telephone listings (name, address, phone number) for the person you specify.

For example, [ phonebook: John Doe New York NY ] will show phonebook listings of everyone named John Doe in New York, NY.

TILDE SEARCH “~”

Google finds synonyms for word immediately following tilde. (No spaces)identifies words you may not have considered.“~CV”, not “~resume”.

Example: ~:java developer ~CV

Minus “-” Operator:

(-) this minus symbol work as not to include. if we keep this symbol in prefix to any word it will restrict that word in our search.

Example: intitle:oracle developer -job -jobs ~resumes

The above example which restrict all jobs postings.

The “OR” and Vertical Bar “|” Operators

The OR operator, for which you may also use | (vertical bar).

Example: (Java OR J2ee)(Java|J2ee)

Both results give the same results.

FILETYPE

Filetype:pdf

PDF file is the most common resume format online. Others include doc, rtf, txt, ps, xls…

Example:Filetype:pdf ~cv(“software sales” OR “software sell” (“.Net”) ASP

(..) NUMBER RANGE OPERATOR

Finds WebPages that contain a number between a listed rangeTo specify range, place two periods between low and high values:

Example: 60521..60532

(intitle:resume OR inurl:resume) (java|j2ee) (EjB|JSP)(filetype:doc OR filetype:pdf OR filetype:txt OR filetype:rtf) 90101..95101 (CA|California)
