So, you create a search agent and our software will automatically notify you of any positions that match your search criteria.  This is the great power presented by the program.  Instead of having to come to the site and search for new positions, the site will let you know when a position that matches your interest has been posted.

So how do you make sure that you get the most out of this powerful tool?  Well, it's all about setting up search agents so that they are not too broad nor too narrow.  Here are a couple of examples and what you could expect to get from them:

Example 1 Title:  RN State:  MA Keywords:  ICU With this search agent, you will get an e-mail notice every time an ICU position is posted for an RN in the state of Massachusetts.	Example 2 Title:  RN State:  MA, ME, NH Keywords:  medical With this search agent, you will get an e-mail notice every time a position is posted in any one of the states that has the word "medical" in the ad.
Example 3 Title:  Other State: CA Keywords: Notice in this search agent, the keyword field is left blank.  In this case you would be notified about every position posted in the state of California that had "Other" for the candidate title.	Example 4 Title:  LPN State: FL, TX, AL, MS Keywords: In this example, you would be notified about every LPN position posted in Florida, Texas, Alabama, and Mississippi.  You may find that you're getting e-mails every day.  If it's too much, add key words.

In the examples listed above, the first search agent would get the fewest e-mails.  The keyword is very specific.  The problem with the keyword is that this nurse would not be notified about a CCU position.  So be careful to use synonyms and other terms that apply to positions that may be of interest to you.

Examples 3 and 4 would result in a large number of e-mails being sent to the user.  That is because no keywords were listed so every position with a matching candidate title, and state would be e-mailed.  Again, you may find this overwhelming.  If that is the case, consider adding keyword(s) that match positions that are truly of interest to you.

Using search agents do require that you register for the service.  This is true at Nurse-Recruiter.com or any job site.  Unlike many though, Nurse-Recruiter.com will never sell your information to third parties.  Your registration is private and your search agent cannot be seen by any employers.  Using search agents allows you much greater privacy than adding your resume to a data base as an example.

Of course that makes the reverse also true.  If you have great talents and experience, employers with unique job opportunities will not be able to find you via a search agent.  Remember that many times, positions are never advertised.
