I would highly recommend GlossaryTech Chrome Extension, which helps you to find synonyms for most of the tech words. IT WORKS!

Generating keywords is an art by itself and the below points can help you derive synonyms for a skill.
1- By carefully reading resumes. Most of the Recruiters miss out on reading resumes contextually and with a lens to derive synonyms.
Example:
Candidate should have experience with X tool. (Assume this is a sentence in a JD)
I have very good experience working with tools like A,B,C. (Assume this sentence is in a resume).
Now Recruiters should try to fig out if B & C can be suitable too if not A? Only if this question tickles Q Recruiter’s thoughts, he would end up checking with the Hiring Manager.
2- Simple Googling can always help. Lets say your JD says, “Should have experience with Ant (build tool)”. You can just go to Google & say ” Ant vs “. Now you will get a list of options.
3- AskĀ FellowMonk – Recruiting Assistant: On the right below corner, click the Monk icon, it will open up FellowMonk. FellowMonk will help you frame Boolean & also generate keywords for technical jargons. Currently it is trained with close to 1000 words, we will be adding more to this.
The urge for generating more keywords is an habit and something most of the Recruiters need to practice.

One of the best ways to generate / fetch probable synonyms or make your search return max possibilities is by using the wildcard.
