How to use "Wait for a file" with "Add filesnames to Result"

$

I'm trying to import a CSV file into the database nightly. The file name is different each night (e.g. YYYY-MM-DD_import.csv) . The Wait for a File instructions specifically say "Wildcards are not allowed in this job entry, but you can use the Add filenames to result job entry to work with wildcards." But it's not clear how to do this. Can they be done within the same job? e.g. START > Add filenames to Result > Wait for file... This doesn't see to work for me. Do they need to be in a series of jobs/transformations? Any help would be appreciated.
