When using Find People with the job title filter, I selected "Contains" and searched for "HR Lead". I expected this to return semantic variants like "HR Leader" or "Leader of HR", but it only returned titles with the exact string "HR Lead". Questions:
Does "Contains" perform literal substring matching (i.e., the exact characters "HR Lead" must appear in sequence)?
Does "Is similar to" use semantic/fuzzy matching that would capture variants like "HR Leader" from a search for "HR Lead"?
If I want to capture title variants without manually listing each one, which operator and syntax should I use?
Hi Joe, thank you for reaching out. Here's the answer for you! 1. Does "Contains" perform literal substring matching (i.e., the exact characters "HR Lead" must appear in sequence)?
Yes, exactly. The "Contains" operator performs literal substring matching. It searches for the exact characters "HR Lead" appearing in sequence within the job title 2. Does "Is similar to" use semantic/fuzzy matching? Yes! The "Is similar to" operator uses semantic matching that includes synonyms and similar titles 3. Which operator should you use for title variants?
Use combination of "Is similar to" and "exclusion keywords" to optimize your research result. Thank you and let us know if you have follow up questions!
