    Currently I'm using c#, web forms and ms sql. I'm using ms sql as my search engine for searching for jobs and candidates. I ran across two issues. Recruiters need it to be simple and be able to search with regular basic boolean functions and sometimes they paste an entire job description and wonder why it takes for ever or crashes.. timeout. What products should be looking at to fix my issues? This needs to be an in-house hosted option.

      The products you are using should be fine. The issue is likely to be your implementation. If a recruiter can post a complete job description as a search entry then there is something wrong at the front end. Change the search box(es) so they are restricted to keywords, and maybe no more than six or seven.

        You have to search for it according to the website so that you can find it without any hassle. The job depends on the web search you are doing according to you get the search. Whenever you search for any job online you have to search it with multiple keywords to get the relevant one for you.

          Searching for keywords on Jobs / CVs (Resumes) can never lead to anything but grief. Ask any job applicant or recruiter who has been stung by keyword search systems. If you are, say, looking for a job application that needs SQL and C#, how would you reject some sentence like "I have never used SQL and I hate C#" or distinguish the relative merits of an applicant who says "I have 20 years experience in C#" from one who says "I have not used C# but I would like to learn it".
