✅

For example you can do

from django.db.models import Q

def search(request):
    if request.method == "GET":
      search_terms = request.GET['title'] 
      search_terms = search_terms.split(',')
      #get rid of duplicates
      search_terms = set(search_terms)
      queryargs = [Q(title__contains=i) for i in search_terms]
      jobs = Job.objects.filter(*queryargs)

Use django.db.models.Q objects. Like this:

from django.db.models import Q

def search(request):
   if request.method == "GET":
       search_terms = request.GET['title']
       search_filter = Q()
       for term in search_terms.split(','):
            search_filter |= Q(title__contains=term)

       jobs = Job.objects.filter(search_filter)

This will search for any of the terms (OR), to search for all terms (AND) use search_filter &= Q(title__contains=term) instead.
