These filters are useful for narrowing down the results for what you&#8217;re looking for to find the perfect opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_Advanced_Query_Options_to_Get_Better_Results\"><\/span>Use Advanced Query Options to Get Better Results<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the basic search options in which you enter texts into the search bars, and Indeed.com returns results and filters, you can also customize your searches. This is the Indeed search method that lets you query job listings. By using this method, you can personalize the directory of available jobs and see only the most relevant ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You only need to enter query markers to use this method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Examples of these markers and how to use them are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Quotation_marks_%E2%80%9C%E2%80%A6%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>1. Quotation marks \u201c\u2026\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Use quotation marks to search for an exact phrase in your job search. For example, type <strong><em>\u201cprogramming skills\u201d<\/em><\/strong> if you are looking for a job that requires programming skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"624\" height=\"564\" src=\"http:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/quotations-search.png\" alt=\"Indeed search with quotations\" class=\"wp-image-3253\" srcset=\"https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/quotations-search.png 624w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/quotations-search-300x271.png 300w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/quotations-search-50x45.png 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Parentheses_%E2%80%A6\"><\/span>2. Parentheses (\u2026)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Use parentheses to search for at least one of several key terms. For instance, type <strong><em>(writer or copywriter or journalist)<\/em><\/strong> to find a job related to writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"632\" height=\"565\" src=\"http:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/parentheses-search.png\" alt=\"Indeed parentheses search\" class=\"wp-image-3250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/parentheses-search.png 632w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/parentheses-search-300x268.png 300w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/parentheses-search-50x45.png 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 632px) 100vw, 632px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Hyphen_%E2%80%93\"><\/span>3. Hyphen &#8211;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Use a hyphen to exclude some terms from your search. For example, type <strong><em>-intern -temporary<\/em><\/strong> if you don&#8217;t want to find a job that hires interns and temporary workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"646\" height=\"569\" src=\"http:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/hyphen-search.png\" alt=\"Indeed hyphen search\" class=\"wp-image-3252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/hyphen-search.png 646w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/hyphen-search-300x264.png 300w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/hyphen-search-50x44.png 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 646px) 100vw, 646px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also essential to know what each of the query markers means. Thankfully, Indeed.com uses a simple query method: each of the markers used as examples is for inclusion, except for the hyphen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you use <strong>quotation marks, parentheses, or keywords with quotation marks<\/strong>, you will get personalized results with the text(s) you included in the search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you use <strong>the hyphen<\/strong>, Indeed.com will exclude the associated word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you want to exclude certain criteria from your search, use the hyphen before the word. For example, writing <em><strong>-SEO<\/strong><\/em> would return writing job listings that don\u2019t have SEO proficiency as a criterion. This can also help you remove a salary range from the search results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_the_Filter_Option_to_Narrow_Search\"><\/span>Use the Filter Option to Narrow Search<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Having set up an account on Indeed.com, you should familiarize yourself with the site. None of the dynamic functions you will find on the site is as helpful as the search function. However, the search option itself is only the starter function to help you filter available jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The homepage of Indeed.com has two search bars with the WHAT and the WHERE options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The <strong>WHAT<\/strong> search bar collects queries about the job you are looking for.<\/li><li>The <strong>WHERE<\/strong> search bar collects address information\u2014your preferred geographical location.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>But once you have entered these pieces of information, Indeed.com will present you with at least 5 filter buttons, including Date Posted, Job Type, Location, Company, and Job Language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"748\" height=\"392\" src=\"http:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/exclude-search.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/exclude-search.png 748w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/exclude-search-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/exclude-search-50x26.png 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Each filter option allows you to narrow your search, saving you the time and effort required to sift through lots and lots of job listings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, the Date Posted filter is useful since it tells you when the employer posted the job, so you can know whether to prioritize or ignore it.<\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"builder-banner-top\">\n        <div class=\"builder-banner-top__title\">\n            You'll Never Find a Good Job\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"builder-banner-top__text\">\n            It\u2019s a job hunter\u2019s common fear, but we can help boost your chances!\n        <\/div>    \n        <a href=\"\/goapp\/new-resume\" class=\"builder-banner-top__a\">Click to use resume builder<\/a>\n    <\/div><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Additional_Search_Settings_on_Indeed\"><\/span>Additional Search Settings on Indeed<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many different search options are available on Indeed, but some are hidden in the settings. In this section, we will talk about additional search settings on the website: reset and save search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find these two options under \u201cAdvanced Search\u201d in the \u201cSearch Settings\u201d section. When you click on \u201cReset Search\u201d, it will remove all your current settings and start fresh with default settings. If you want to save your current search so that you don&#8217;t have to re-enter all of your preferences again, just click on \u201cSave Search\u201d; it will be saved for future use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Reset_Indeed_Search\"><\/span>How to Reset Indeed Search<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To reset your Indeed searches, go to the top-most part of the browser and click the <strong>three vertical dots<\/strong>.

If you want to delete everything, simply choose <strong>All Time<\/strong>. After that, tick the boxes next to the Cookies and other site data and Cached images and files sections. Finally, hit the <strong>Clear Data<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Save_a_Search_on_Indeed\"><\/span>How to Save a Search on Indeed<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are currently logged into the website, your recent searches will be automatically saved and appear on your homepage. However, you may save your job search as a Job Alert email so you will be notified if new matching jobs are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To do that, locate the &#8220;Be the first to see new Indeed jobs&#8221; section in the upper right corner of the search results. Then choose Activate. You will then receive job alert emails within the next hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To enable job alerts, follow the steps below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li>Use the <strong>WHAT<\/strong> and <strong>WHERE<\/strong> search options.<\/li><li>When Indeed returns the results, look to the right-hand side of the page where it says <strong>Get new jobs for this search by email<\/strong>.<\/li><li>Enter your email address into the bar and click <strong>Activate<\/strong>.<\/li><li>Confirm your email via the verification process.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"383\" src=\"http:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/save-indeed-search.png\" alt=\"Save Indeed Search\" class=\"wp-image-3233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/save-indeed-search.png 640w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/save-indeed-search-300x180.png 300w, https:\/\/resumekit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/save-indeed-search-50x30.png 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>These steps enable Indeed.com to notify you via email of job postings that fit the criteria you searched for. You can create multiple search profiles this way. This way, Indeed.com can help you look for relevant jobs, not just anything that is posted in the online directory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Get_the_Most_from_an_Indeed_Job_Search\"><\/span>Get the Most from an Indeed Job Search<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As a bonus, here are a few tips from experts about how to use Indeed.com productively. Though few, each of these can help you maximize a job posting on Indeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Sign_Up_to_Use_Indeed_Job_Listing_Website\"><\/span>1.&nbsp;Sign Up to Use Indeed Job Listing Website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Much like the majority of online services, you need to <a href=\"https:\/\/secure.indeed.com\/auth\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/secure.indeed.com\/auth\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sign up on Indeed.com<\/a> before you can use the site. This is not only to get you included in the site\u2019s mailing or subscriber\u2019s list. Instead, signing and setting up an account with Indeed.com helps you join the system\u2019s complementary framework of job seekers and employers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest advantage to setting up an Indeed.com account is that you get to upload your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indeed.com\/career-advice\/resumes-cover-letters\/why-is-a-resume-important\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">resume<\/a>. This helps the site match you with jobs that fit your qualifications and location. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, because this system is very organized and runs seamlessly, you may not even need to use advanced search before the system finds you a reliable prospective employer. And if not an employer, then various job listings that fit your bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Upload_Your_Resume_for_System_Match_Algorithm\"><\/span>2.&nbsp;Upload Your Resume for System Match Algorithm<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to use Indeed.com is to upload your resume from the very start. You can do this even before setting up an account. The goal of letting Indeed have a copy of your resume is to allow the system to match you up with relevant employers and job listings. Indeed.com does this by singling out parts of your CV, including your contact information (location, especially), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/personal-finance\/most-valuable-career-skills\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">skills<\/a>, education, and more. Then it matches this information with job requirements and sends your resume (if you want) to employers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Customize_Browser_Plug-ins_to_Increase_Search_Convenience\"><\/span>3.&nbsp;Customize Browser Plug-ins to Increase Search Convenience<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to Indeed.com sending you notifications based on your search criteria, you can also maximize job listings on the site by using browser plug-ins. These plug-ins are browser extensions that integrate with Indeed.com and therefore make it easier for you to access and use the site\u2019s many functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the more commonly used website functions via plug-ins is the setting up of job alerts. With a Google Chrome or Firefox plug-in, for example, you can search for jobs without being on the Indeed homepage. In effect, you can easily set up notifications at a moment\u2019s notice, saving much-needed time in the process. Moreover, Indeed.com recommends Google Chrome as the best browser for navigating the platform. So, having the Chrome Indeed extension will greatly improve your chances to get suitable jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two other common browser plug-ins useful for navigating Indeed.com. These are Google\u2019s toolbar button and the RSS feed tool.
