Job Searching by Keyword

Some job sites offer lists, where you simply browse and click on links to job ads. Others offer simple to complex job-searching forms, where you click or type your choice of job categories, locations and so on, and may optionally toss in a keyword or two. These job searching methods are pretty much no-brainers, even for the novice. But further refining your search with keywords takes a little know-how, especially at a site where you must search purely by keyword.

For example, if you are seeking a tech support job, searching on the keywords technical support is a logical choice. But with a broad search like this, you may end up weeding through dozens of irrelevant jobs worldwide. You'll probably want to add some qualifying keywords to narrow your search.
