Yes. It could be simplified to

'+(obgyn pediatrics) +ambulatory '

Correct. Or

'+Training +(Documentation "Technical Writer ") '

Yes. Or simply

'art graphic publishing '

> "web design " AND "web development " AND "webmaster ":
> MATCH (jobdescription) AGAINST( '+( "web design ") +( "web development ")
> +( "webmaster ") ' IN BOOLEAN MODE)

Yes. Or

'+ "web design " + "web development " + "webmaster " '

If you find that some of the above doesn 't work as expected -
report at http://bugs.mysql.com :)
