In research for a webinar I ran last week Google Plus for Recruiters, I found that there are not too many useful tools to help recruiters source candidates on Google Plus. The big problem with the search within Google Plus is that there is no good way to limit your search to a specific geographic area. It would appear that the most effective way is not to use the search in Google Plus but use a Google X-Ray search. Glen Cathy wrote a very insightful blog on this subject here.
I know that x-ray search is not for everyone so inspired by Glens blog I set out to develop a simple tool to search Google Plus based on location that does not need to use x-ray techniques.
My search tool is available here. The locations should be any place, either a word or phrase not surrounded by " characters. The keywords and be anything you're looking for and may even include some of the Google search operators.
This is still my first attempt at this and I welcome feedback. If you find it useful please share it. I know that there are many people that can't be found either because they did not have a location on their profile or the location text is not being indexed as well as I would like.
I hope you like it.
