Having problems finding the right candidate

[Edna Barone]

looking for an Account Director with retail experience living in Los Angeles. Where do I put the years of experience that I'm looking for? Help me with a string!!!

Chances are the right person would not have a resume posted on the Internet.

Try this search of LinkedIn profiles
"account director" "los Angeles" retail -sample -directory -questions site:linkedin.com

Have a nice Thanksgiving

Edna, you could try the query using this service:

http://websearch.recruiting.com/?search[group_ids][]=0&search[site_ids][]=0&search[filter_ids][]=0&search[keywords]=%28%22account+director%22+OR+%22account+executive%22%29+retail&search[location]=los+angeles%2C+ca&search[site_search_mode]=advanced&search[group_ids][]=1&search[group_ids][]=2&search[site_ids][]=1&search[site_ids][]=2

You'll need to refine a bit more based on what you're looking for as there are probably too many results to go through.

Thanks, Jeff. I will be trying this. You are right, I try to refine the searches I do. This candidate "Account Director" must be in the Advertising field with solid retail experience living in Los Angeles or California.

Thanks for you help
