How to construct a LinkedIn Boolean Search
that works (Technically)?
What are LinkedIn
Boolean Searches? :check:
LinkedIn Allows you to enter filters for
Connection level (1st, 2nd, 3rd)
Geographic locations
The text you would like to search for
This text can contain
the Boolean operators
(must be in capital letters as shown to the left)
OR
If you have more than 5 OR's
LinkedIn will issue an error message and
ask you to simplify your search
NOT
AND
A space between words
is interpreted by LinkedIn as AND
Use Space instead of AND
to avoid being restricted to 5
T01
The free version of LinkedIn has a "Commercial Limit" of about 15 searches PER MONTH
If you exceed this, you will have to wait till the start of next month to do more searches
We will show you how to save
the search so that you don't have to keep doing a new search
T02
All versions of LinkedIn
You can send a maximum of 100 Connection Requests per week
T03
Examples
tall dark handsome
All profiles returned from the search
must contain all 3 words
tall OR dark OR handsome
All profiles returned from the search
may contain any of these words
(founder OR entrepreneur) ("digital marketing" OR information) (relationships OR others OR difference OR partner) NOT(talent) NOT(recruitment)
Boolean searches can be
sophisticated and powerful
You can get help with this in other sessions
It's worth taking the effort to think about it
To save you a lot of time and help
you quickly find good
network-building partners
T04
Think about how best to structure your searches to find great network building partners for your team
Include words that help
you find like-minded attitudes
The words "Others" & "Difference"
Often indicate they are interested in
making a difference in the lives of others
Include words that help you find others that are likely to be interested in expanding their networks
Such as owner, founder, start-up, entrepreneur
Include words that will
make it easy for you to connect
If they have a similar profession or entrepreneurial spirit you will have an affinity which can make it easier to connect
This may make it easier to talk about things you have in common
As you examine profiles
Take note of words that you may want to include in future searches
Ideally, your search should
yield about 500 profiles
Anything above 1000 is wasted
because LinkedIn will only allow you to access the first 1000
