How to find Sales Directors with Boolean search strings

Using Boolean search logic in Google to find resumes and profiles allows for more targeted
searches. Modify our search strings examples to recruit a Sales Director who can lead your sales
team and develop effective strategies.

Generic Boolean strings for Sales Directors


Build a generic search string around terms like:

-job -jobs -sample -examples, to avoid irrelevant results


(intitle:resume OR intitle:cv), to discover candidates’ online resumes or CVs
(“sales director” OR “VP sales”), to cover variations of the same job title

Here’s an example of a Boolean search string to find resumes:

(intitle:resume OR intitle:cv) (“sales director” OR “VP sales”) -job -jobs -sample -templates
-examples

With these Boolean strings for sales directors, the words “resume” or “CV” have to appear either
in the page title or the page url. Some companies use the term “manager” and “director”
interchangeably. Adding variations of managerial job roles provides more relevant results. And,
excluding more terms reduces false positives.

Searching for profiles of Sales Directors


Search for profiles on specific sites through Google by including the site: operator and terms found
exclusively on member profiles. For example:

site:meetup.com “sales director” “member since”


site:quora.com “sales director” “credentials & highlights”

Add more criteria in your search to find profiles that better match your requirements.
