| 1 word | When one keyword is used, the search will return all profiles that contain that keyword, sorted by rank. |
| 2+ words |
When more than one keyword is used, the search will return all profiles that contain all or some
of the keywords. Profiles that have all keywords are rated higher. Then the list is
sorted by rank. For example: clinical nurse Will return profiles with clinical or nurse or both words present. Profiles with both clinical and nurse in them are rated higher. |

A phrase that is enclosed in double quotes will return only those profiles that have that exact phrase in them. For example: "clinical nurse" Will return profiles with the phrase clinical nurse. "clinical nurse" specialist Will return profiles with the phrase clinical nurse, the word specialist, and profiles with both the phrase and the word. |
| + |
A leading + sign before a word indicates the word MUST be present in the profile. For example: +clinical nurse Will return profiles with the word clinical in them. The word nurse is optional. +clinical +nurse Will return only profiles with both of those words in them (in any order). +"clinical nurse" specialist Will return profiles with the phrase clinical nurse. The word specialist is optional. |

A leading - sign before a word indicates the word MUST NOT be present in the profile. For example: "clinical nurse" -specialist Will return profiles with the phrase clinical nurse as long as the profile does not also have the word specialist. |
| * |
A trailing * indicates a wildcard. The search will return all results that complete the word. For example: pract* Will return profiles with words like practice, practitioner, practicing, etc. |
