Using the Tilde Symbol key on the keyboard Without any further ado, let’s get started. In this section, I will make available for you five different methods you can utilize to type or insert the Tilde Symbol in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or any text editor for both Mac and Windows users. Microsoft Office provides several methods for typing or inserting symbols that do not have dedicated keys on the keyboard. However, below are some other methods you can also leverage to insert this symbol into your Word document. Hopefully this is just the tip[ of the iceberg for the application of the ~ with you and your searches.The above quick guide provides some useful tips on how to type ~ Symbol including shortcuts and alt codes you can use on both Windows and Mac. Granted, there were MANY things we could have added here such geographic location, word proximity search, additional NOT statements to exclude certain backgrounds, etc. Search String #2: ~cv ~java spring hibernate ~”Computer Science” -~jobĪnalysis: In looking at this level of results, 7 of the first 10 were resumes giving us a 70% yield, more than double our first run through. In some cases, a 30% yield is actually quite good. Search String #1: ~cv ~java spring hibernate ~”Computer Science”Īnalysis: In looking at the results, only 3 of the first 10 results were actual resumes giving us a 30% yield. Say for instance, we are sourcing for a Java Engineer, with a Computer Science Degree who has had experience working with Spring and Hibernate Frameworks. The reason why this is especially important is your efficiency, effectiveness and speed of sourcing qualified candidates drastically increases with the use of -~job. ~job will NOT show: Job, Jobs, Opening, Openings, Recruit, Recruiters, Recruiting and a variety of others. In other words: NOT ~job (or) -~job will deduct all words synonymous with JOB from your search results. ~CV = Curriculum Vitae, Curriculum Vitaes, CV, C.V., Resume, Resumes, Portfolio, Portfolios and so forth.Ĭool huh? This especially comes in handy when using a NOT operator by placing a NOT or subtraction symbol (-) directly in front of a tilde operated term. But one of the coolest thing you can do is search for words or phrases easily and quickly through the ~ function. Google, as with all search engines, has its limitations.
This operator is incredibly valuable for a number of reasons the first being bandwidth. The ~ is a synonym operator which searches for all synonymous words or phrases.
One of the most underutilized yet amazing Boolean search operators in Google is the Tilde (~) which can be found directly to the left of the #1 key on a standard keyboard.
