How to use this tool

  1. Enter alternative job titles separated by commas.
  2. Add required skills, a location and any terms to exclude.
  3. Copy the LinkedIn query or open an X-ray web search.

A worked example

Input

Job titles: Founder, CEO · Location: London

Output

site:linkedin.com/in/ ("Founder" OR "CEO") "London"

Alternative titles use OR. The location is an additional condition; the site filter limits the web query to profile URLs.

What the result means

Use the LinkedIn version in a people-search keyword field. Google and Bing versions search public profile pages; review the profile and company before adding a prospect.

Search engines only show publicly indexed profiles. LinkedIn supports its own Boolean rules and may restrict complex searches; this tool does not bypass access limits.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Boolean and X-ray search?

Boolean combines terms with operators such as AND, OR and NOT inside LinkedIn. X-ray uses a web search engine with a site filter to find publicly indexed LinkedIn pages. The tool generates separate versions.

Why do I get few or no matching profiles?

Required terms narrow the search. Try removing a skill, using a broader location or adding a title synonym. Search engines do not index every profile, and LinkedIn may limit complex queries.
