Yes, you can use boolean operators in keyword searches. When searching for jobs, you can use the "All of" operator, which will match only results containing all of your specified keywords. This ensures the jobs returned contain both keywords you're looking for, rather than just one or the other.

Hey there Troy thanks for reaching out, to clarify when you say that you want to search for keywords do you mean as in job titles or descriptions? If you mean job titles there is an option to include and exclude certain titles. https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/w28k1kwz/1303198360/bafcc8f01130a10305ecfcc32971/image.png?expires=1734543900&signature=7cff34a385ecce2b734f0b908856ecacd38c22ad048da96e8c6c286ad0c70e83&req=dSMnFch3lYJZWfMW1HO4zQnTE1oMONgfFwWN0OgEqsWCqddbl0l7xmddOngQ%0A8KO3%0A

I was trying to use it in the job description. sometimes if i search for something specific in the job description. for example if i search for jobs where clay is mentioned in the job description i can get a bunch of result that have nothing to do with Clay the company so i want to a Boolean for Clay and GTM to narrow down what i am looking for

Ah I see thank you for clarifying that. Unfortunately, we currently do not have the option to exclude keyword descriptions when searching for job in Clay. Although this is something that has been brought up to the team before, so will go and bump that suggestion.
