of two (or more) phrases, you should separate the
phrase with an upper case OR (e.g., Director OR
Manager)
Multiple Phrases – If you are searching for two
phrases within a profile, you should separate the
phrase with an upper case AND (e.g., Director
AND Manager). As an FYI, even if you don't

Director Manager).
Complex Searches – Since titles are not standard
across companies, you may want to use similar
phrases with inclusion and exclusion when search-
ing. In these cases, you would use parentheses.
For instance, a search like this, GM OR (VP AND
Europe) would find people who have GM or VP
AND Europe in their profiles.

Keyword Search Functions
Title – Search for users with a particular title. If you
