General Search Tips

Before clicking Search, you must choose or enter at least one item to search for.

When you enter or choose criteria in several fields, you are requesting a list of jobs that meet all the requirements you enter. Each term you add will narrow down the list of results. (For more information on what happens when you enter multiple terms, see the "Searching by keyword" section below.)

Example: You enter Accounting in the Job Family field and get 20 results. Then you select San Francisco in the Location section as well. Now you get four results -- only the accounting jobs that are in San Francisco.

Search field details

• Job Family. The dropdown list includes Wells Fargo's job categories. If you select All Job Families, you must select at least one other search parameter.
• Location
  • Once you select a state, you will see regions display, and once you select a region the cities will display. When you select a large city, you may see an additional column allowing you to search by neighborhood.
  • Each level of the location search is optional. For example, you can select a state (or multiple states) without selecting a region, or a region without selecting a city.
  • To select multiples, choose one location, then hold the Control key (or Command key for Macintosh) while you select another. If you select multiples, you will not see anything display in the next column. For example, if you select Iowa and Nebraska, you will not see a display of regions.
• Requisition Number. This is an identification number assigned to each job posting. You may learn of a requisition number through a conversation with a recruiter or manager, an online or print advertisement, or an email informing you of a job opening.
• Jobs Posted Within and Jobs Posted Since (Advanced Search only). Both of these allow you to search by dates, but you can only use one date search method at a time.
• Telecommute Option. Some jobs can be performed remotely or from any location. If you check the Telecommute Option box, you will only see jobs for which the recruiter wishes to advertise this option. Definitions of this option will vary, and the absence of this designation may not rule out the possibility of working remotely. Any details regarding this option will be determined at the time of hire, and are subject to change.
• Desired Pay (Advanced Search only): Jobs are included in your search results if the amount you enter is within the job's pay range.
• Recruiter/Hiring Manager (Advanced Search only): Enter last name first. For best results use quotes around the name.

Searching by Keyword

Use keywords to search for terms that appear in a job's title or description fields (including job description, minimum qualifications, and preferred skills).

Note: Job titles and descriptions may include abbreviations or acronyms. Also, managers are encouraged to advertise jobs using plain English titles and descriptions, which may differ from the default title and description.

If your search includes keywords, note the following:

Keyword Search Behavior
Character/Text/Words	Effect on Search Results
"," (comma)	A comma between keywords means or. For example, search results for training, manager will include all jobs that include either word. Jobs with both words will receive higher ranking in your results.
Or	Using or between search terms works the same as a comma, above.
Search terms enclosed with quotation marks	Searches for the exact word or phrase. For example, entering "training manager" will not return the word training unless it appears before manager. This is the best method for finding exact matches to a term or phrase.
Two or more words without commas or quotes	Searches for the exact phrase, but also includes the space after each word. Similar to using quotes above.
And	If you type and between two search terms, results will include jobs with both words somewhere within the job description fields -- but not necessarily together. For example, results for training and manager could include a job with the title Operations Manager and a description that mentions training requirements. If only one of the terms is found, the job will not appear in your results. (If you want results for either term, use a comma or or.)
Not	If you enter not between two words, results will include jobs that include the first word, minus jobs that also include the second term. For example, training not manager, will exclude training manager, or a job with the title Operations Manager and a description that mentions training requirements.
"*"(asterisk)	Use with a partial word to conduct a wildcard search. For example, if you type manag*, your results include the words manager and management.
";" (semicolon)	Do not use semicolons -- no results will return.

Email a Job

To forward a job link to someone else, start from the Job Description page and click the Email This Job button.

On the "Email This Job" page:

1. Complete the required name and email fields, add a personal note if you wish, or leave the pre-filled message as shown.
   • You may edit your name and email address. You may want to add your last name, or enter your home email address, if that is more familiar to your recipient. (The address displays for your recipient, but is not clickable. The name in the "from" field on the email is "Wells Fargo Recruiting.")
   • You can add to or edit the text shown in the "Message" box. The text in this box will be labeled as "Note from [Your Name]" within the email.
2. Click Send to generate an email from "Wells Fargo Recruiting," which will include a link to the job description along with your message.
   • If a job is not posted for applicants outside Wells Fargo, you can only send it to a recipient with an email address ending in "@wellsfargo.com."
   • If a job is open to all applicants, "@wellsfargo.com" recipients will receive a link within the Jobs tool; recipients outside Wells Fargo will receive a link to the same job on Wells Fargo's Careers job search tool.

(Wachovia team members: This feature will not work correctly for you, because internal job posting links can only be sent when both the sender and recipient have wellsfargo.com email addresses. To refer other team members — Wachovia or Wells Fargo — to an opening on the Jobs tool, copy the job's requisition number into a regular email. When the recipient signs on to the Job Search Home page, he or she can simply enter that number into the "Requisition Number" field and click Search.)

Saving Searches and Using Job Agents

Saving a search allows you to use your search criteria again without re-entering each search term. At the time you save a search, you can also set it up as a job agent, which will email job postings to you based on the saved criteria.

What a Job Agent Does
A job agent runs your search automatically every Monday through Friday evening for a 90-day period. If the search finds any new jobs that meet your criteria, you will receive an email and a message in the Job Agent Notifications box on the Job Search Home page. The next time the agent searches for you, it checks for new jobs added since your last email — you don't receive duplicate emails. The email lists up to five new job titles and will tell you if more jobs were found.

To retrieve the job descriptions you can:

• Go to the Jobs site and search for one job by entering the requisition number (shown in the email).
• Run your saved search again to retrieve the links to all the matching jobs (which may be more than the five-job limit of the email). The link to your saved search appears in your Job Agent Notifications box and on the My Saved Searches page.

To save a search or set up a job agent, you must begin from the Advanced Search page.

1. Enter your criteria, then
   • Click the Save Search button; or
   • If you want to complete a search first before saving the criteria, click the Search button. You will see your search results, but you will no longer see the criteria or the Save Search button. To view search criteria and the Save Search button again from the search results page, just click the Show link in the bar above the search results. Now you can click the Save Search button.
2. On the Save Search page, name your search.
3. To use this search as a job agent, click the checkbox. Your registered email address will appear; you may use a different address for receiving job agent emails if you like. This will not change your contact information.
4. Click Save Search again.
5. You'll be taken to the My Saved Searches page, with your new search listed. Each saved search has a link to edit or delete the search, and a button to run the search. Return to this page anytime, by clicking the My Saved Searches link at the top of the most pages

To stop receiving job agent notifications, go to the My Saved Searches page and delete the saved search.
