Use stemming for regular text, like news articles or product descriptions.
You want to match “job” to both “jobs report” and “job numbers”.

Use unstemmed for proper names—people, places, products. You do not
want “job” to match “Steve Jobs” but you do want it to match “Book of Job”.
You don’t want “gate” to match “Bill Gates”. You do not want “see” to match
the movie “Saw”. Really, you don’t, that happened at Netflix.
