Filters decide which jobs count as matches for a company. Each company has its own filters. A job must pass both the keyword filter and the location filter to count as a match. An empty filter matches everything.

​
Plan limits

Free accounts can use up to 2 keywords and 1 location per company. Pro accounts can use unlimited keywords and locations.

​
Keywords

Keywords match against the job title. They do not match the job description, department, or requirements.

​
Any vs all

Choose one mode:
  • Any matches when at least one keyword appears.
  • All matches only when every keyword appears.
Use Any for related role families:
Use All for narrowing:

​
Keyword matching

Keyword matching is case-insensitive. JobBeacon also ignores common separators, so these can match each other: Multi-word keywords match as a phrase. product designer does not match “Product Manager, Designer Tools.”

​
Locations

Locations match against the job’s location field. They use the same Any and All modes as keywords. Use Any when any listed location is acceptable:
Use All only when the job location must contain every location value. This is uncommon, but it can help with location strings that contain both city and region.

​
Multi-location jobs

Many jobs list several locations, such as:
A Berlin filter matches that job because Berlin appears in the location list. In job tables, JobBeacon may condense long location lists. Hover or focus the location cell to see the full list.

​
Unspecified locations

Some jobs do not expose a specific location. Examples include:
  • Empty location fields
  • N/A
  • Unspecified
  • Workday values like 5 Locations
By default, these do not match a location filter. Turn on Include unspecified locations when you want those jobs included while a location filter is active. If you have no location filter, this setting has no effect.

​
