LinkedIn search is incredibly powerful,
But most folks aren’t using the full potential.
Have your heard of the ‘NOT’ operator?

Boolean operators like:

- AND
- OR 
- NOT

Will allow you to quickly filter your LinkedIn searches for specific keywords and phrases.

For example,

- searching “Product” AND “hiring”
- then filtering your search for ‘posts’

Would likely give you a list of people who have posted about Product roles they’re hiring for.

If you’ve followed me for a bit, you know I post about LinkedIn search often.

A smart search with the right operators,
Is a great way to find your target audience.

What I’d like to talk about today, is using the ‘NOT’ operator, which gets used the least.

NOT excludes terms from your search results,

making it easier to find exactly what you’re looking for, and removing a lot of the noise from your search result.

Here are a few example:

1 - marketing director NOT agency
Use case: You’re looking for in-house marketing leadership roles and want to avoid marketing agencies.

2 - project manager NOT ("Accenture" OR "Deloitte")
Use case: You want project manager roles but want to filter out listings from consulting firms.

3 - ("product operations" OR "product strategy") NOT internship NOT junior
Use case: You want to find mid-to-senior-level product operations or strategy roles and exclude internships and junior titles.

🔥Quick tip:
Use uppercase NOT and put multiple exclusions in parentheses if combining, like:
NOT ("entry level" OR "intern").

Hope this helps!

PS - Don’t forget to send connection messages to the people you find in search.

Here’s a quick example for that.

 "Hi _____, I hope you're well. I wanted to learn more about the mid-level PM role you posted about. I'm currently a _____ with _____ years of PM experience in the tech industry; including roles at _______ and ________. I’m looking to continue my career in the PM space. I’m passionate about ______ and I’d love the opportunity to show you how I can create value for your health technology team, just like I delivered this project (insert hyperlink) for my last employer. I hope to hear from you soon and am happy to provide a resume! Thank you."

Most job seekers stop after clicking 'Apply'
Successful job seekers go a step further, finding the humans behind the post. Here’s how ↓ 

I call it the Reverse Job Search method, and it literally takes less than a minutue:

1 - Identify the role
Search across your target companies for openings that truly fit your background.

2 - Grab the job number
Find the requisition ID from the posting or URL.

3 - Run a Google search
Combine the company name, job title, and JR number with “LinkedIn.”

4 - Find LinkedIn posts
Look for mentions of that job from recruiters or employees.

5 - Explore connections
See who in your network works there or is connected to the hiring team.

6 - Reach out
Send a message or connection request to start a conversation.

🔥 Bonus: If it’s a target company, click “I’m interested” on the job page (scroll down) so recruiters can see your intent on LinkedIn Recruiter.

This simple extra step turns a cold application into a warm introduction — and can be the difference between getting seen or getting lost.
