Improving Search Results
Zero results or too few results?
- Make sure your search terms are spelled correctly
- Try entering fewer search terms
- Try less specific search terms. Example: search for "Children" rather than "Boys" or "Girls"
- Choose the ANY WORDS search option to retrieve profiles that include any of your search terms
- Use an asterisk (*) anywhere in a word to represent any number of letters. This is a useful way to retrieve variants of a word. Example: wom* will find both "woman" and "women"
Too many results?
- Be as specific as you can. Try using more words to refine your search. Example: search for "youth employment" rather than just "employment"
- Use the ALL WORDS search option to narrow your search to find results that include ALL of your search terms
- Use the EXACT PHRASE search option to narrow your search to find results in which all your search terms need to appear together as a phrase
