Search Steps

Using JobWyze is pretty easy, as it resembles any general search engine, in terms of functionality. To get started, just go to the JobWyze home page, or the search box at the top of the pages, and do the following :

1. In the text-box marked 'Keywords' type words or phrases that best describe the kind of job you are seeking, such as a job role or title, a key skill, a technical competency or any other associated keywords - e.g Marketing Manager, Java Architect etc.

2. In the text-box marked 'Location', type the City, the State, or the Union Territory, in India, where you would want the job to be - e.g. Bangalore, NCR, Maharashtra, etc.

3. Click the 'Find Jobs' button or hit Enter.

This will result in all jobs containg your keywords, for the location that you have specified. Please note that you need to enter text in at least one of the boxes ('Keywords' or 'Location') to get results. Also, if you enter two or more keywords, only those jobs that contain ALL your words, will be returned.

Phrase search

If you want job results which contain an exact phrase, you should put quotation marks (") around the phrase.

For example, entering, "software engineer", would return you results which contain the exact phrase "software engineer".

Capitalization

The search queries are not case sensitive - e.g. "JAVA Architect" will give you the same results as "java architect". It does not make any difference whether you use upper or lower cases.

Broadening Your Search

By default, multiple keywords will return jobs containing ALL your words (the Boolean 'AND' operation, for the mathematical and computational bent). This is equivalent to an intersection using sets.

However, to find all jobs that fit your interests, you may need to broaden your keyword search. If you want jobs that match one or more of the terms , you can just include an 'OR' between keywords. This is equivalent to a union using sets.

For example, entering, C++ OR Java, would return results which have either one or both of the terms.

Abbreviations

In some situations, using abbreviations of common phrases rather than their full forms, might return more results. To make sure you don't miss out on any jobs, however, try using both the abbreviated and the full forms together.

For example, entering, HR OR "human resources", should be preferred rather than using only one of these terms.

Company Name

You might also be interested in jobs from only one company. In order to achieve this, just prefix the company name you want to search for, with 'company:'.

For example, entering,company:IBM, would result in jobs only from IBM.

If there are multiple words in the company name, surround it with parentheses. For example, company:(Wipro Technologies)

Refining your search

There can be occasions, when your results contain a large number of jobs. Under these circumstances its best to use the filters that are on the left of the page and drill down to a subset of your original search results.

You can also try adding more terms to the 'Keywords' box or the 'Location' box and search again.

Eliminating unwanted search terms

Alternatively, you can exclude jobs containing certain keywords. For this, just precede your search term with a minus (-) symbol to exclude documents that contain that word, or alternatively, use the word 'NOT'.

For example, entering Delivery Manager -company:Infosys would exclude Delivery Manager jobs from Infosys.

Grouping

You can also create more complex nested queries, by grouping simple queries, using parentheses.

For example, (manager OR director) AND (ITES OR Banking) NOT Sales

Advanced Search

If you want to create more advanced queries using any of the above features you can also try our Advanced Job Search page. This allows you to specify multiple terms and then combine them to create complex queries, with the boolean "AND", "OR" or "NOT" operators.

Hope these tips help you get the job with the best fit. Happy Job Hunting..!!
