Can’t find what you are looking for? These tips can help you obtain better search results.

• Use more specific words – Try “Account Manager” instead of “Manager” to narrow your results.
• Avoid using words that have more than one meaning or can apply across all categories. For example, “model” can refer to car model, clay model or fashion model.
• Instead of entering specific keywords, try our Advanced search .The pre-determined fields in Advanced search will help you make a more optimised search without having to think of the keywords yourself.

Be headhunted
• This is so that potential employers will be able to look for you via their pre-set candidate settings. For e.g. a company looking for someone who has Japanese language skills receive resumes of candidates who meet that criterion.
