These are 25 (slightly modified) of the Boolean search string samples we have discussed in the lectures in the People Sourcing Certification Program. Hope you will see some usage that will help you practice and create your search strings.
These strings do not guarantee to do anything remarkable, especially if you replace keywords or if anything in Google’s Boolean syntax changes – starting tomorrow. These are only samples and food for thought. (I also provide a different sample list for the Program participants.)
