How often can I use HeroJobSearch?
As much as you would like. There are no limitations.
Can I find all veterans by branch and service academy using HeroJobSearch?
No. Some people don't have an online presence. Others inadvertently, or on purpose, don't make their online information publicly available. However, to date there are more than 700 million people and 81 million veterans who are searchable via HeroJobSearch, so we're sure you'll find some great results.
Give me an example of how HeroJobSearch saves me time?
In HeroJobSearch's "Search By Title," "Search by Function," and "Power Search" sections, the results pages feature tabs of all military branches and service academies that can be instantly clicked on for sorting purposes. Each tab represents dozens of unique LinkedIn searches (both includes and excludes to remove false positives).
Meaning, for example, in the Title Search section alone, each button represents more than 20 unique title searches, and combined with the results page tabs, would total more than 1,900 unique searches in other engines! Assuming you could conduct a search manually in 20 seconds, what you can do in HeroJobSearch in less than four seconds would otherwise take you 10+ hours.
Now, most people would certainly never spend hours searching, however, they would then miss a lot of results if they didn't (e.g., if you searched for "vice presidents" in other engines, you'd miss VPs, SVPs, AVPs, EVPs, etc. yet HeroJobSearch automatically searches for similar titles).
In addition, there are dozens of different ways that people identify themselves as military veterans (e.g., US Marines, Marine Corp., Marine Veteran, etc.). To capture all veterans in other search engines, you would need to know all of the different ways people identify themselves versus in HeroJobSearch, which runs all searches simultaneously and automatically.
Why is the Meta-Job Search feature so special?
HeroJobSearch's Meta-Job Search feature makes it easy to quickly search for jobs that are posted online AND via Indeed. Normally you would need to use these engines separately so HeroJobSearch will save you time when conducting your search.
What are some other advantages of searching for jobs via HeroJobSearch?
A big advantage is HeroJobSearch does not limit industry searches to pre-defined classifications. For example, in most people search engines, there is no industry classification for "Internet of Things" yet there are tens of thousands of veterans who work in that industry. As odd as this is, some search engines do not even have an industry search for "manufacturing" (there are millions of veterans working in manufacturing).
How does the HeroJobSearch News Search work?
The News Search feature in HeroJobSearch searches Google News and other sources via the Extended News feature. Google News features articles from the larger, more popular news sources. Extended News features articles from local newspapers, industry journals, and other sources. Plus, with Extended News, you can instantly sort your results by articles, press releases, social media posts, and blog posts. AND... the HeroJobSearch News Search feature also has two tabs that only search credible military and veteran's publications.
Is HeroJobSearch a proprietary database?
No, HeroJobSearch is NOT a database. It is, however, a HUGE time saver. HeroJobSearch and our Intel Engines makes finding information that is already online much easier. You could use a search engine like Google combined with other Websites to find the information that HeroJobSearch and other Intel Engines deliver. However, you would need to know how to craft complex mathematical Boolean equations and/or know the correct websites to even visit. You could spend minutes - or more likely hours - trying to find information on your own, or you could use HeroJobSearch and Intel Engines and find the right information in just seconds.
How do I know that the results found using HeroJobSearch are accurate?
With any online search, there is no guarantee that the information is accurate or current. However, HeroJobSearch has built-in-logic that runs in the background and it attempts to filter out results from non-reputable sources.
Some of the results are people who are not veterans. How did that happen?
HeroJobSearch uses complex Boolean algorithms that looks for combinations of words that lead the system to believe that a person is a veteran. Sometimes those words do appear on a person's online profile, just not in the correct order. That is known as a false-positive. In addition, just like any online search, sometimes odd results appear for no apparent reason. Yet hopefully HeroJobSearch does a good enough job that 85%+ of the results are truly individuals who fit your search criteria.
I am a veteran, yet my name does not show up when searching in HeroJobSearch. Why?
HeroJobSearch looks for combinations of words on a person's online profile to determine if someone a veteran. Please contact us and we are happy to share what words you might want to put on your profile, so you do appear. In addition, some people inadvertently, or on purpose, don't make their profiles publicly available. For those people, their names will not appear in results.
I entered the right information and someone's name who should appear in a result didn't. Why?
Some people inadvertently, or on purpose, don't make their profile publicly available to open-Web search engines. For those people, their names will not appear in any results.
Can I share HeroJobSearch with others?
YES... please do so! You can send people to www.herojobsearch.com where they can create their own FREE membership.
