You can search freelancers by name. Select Starts with option and enter first few letters of freelancer's name in the field, and the cursor will jump to highlight first matching freelancer's name in the list. Select Contains option and enter any part of freelancer's name being searched.
Freelancers search by price, service or completed jobs
To search freelancers by price, service or completed jobs, click Search button.
Freelance search using Search button in Projetex can be done either by services from freelancer's price list or by jobs types completed by this expert. This includes languages, since services can employ language pairs. Since prices are added per certain service, search by prices employs both search by language pairs and by rates.
The following search options are available:
| • | Basic search which can be conducted on the Main tab of Freelancer window. To search freelance experts here, click Search button over the list of the freelancers. This search is intended for quick browsing through long lists of freelancers. |
| • | Freelance team search — when creating a group of freelancers pre-searched for certain project. To search freelancers for a freelance team, open Project window, select required project and click Freelance Team tab. Click Search button to begin searching freelancers for this team. |
The main difference between basic search and freelance team search is that experts found with the help of freelance team search can be added to this freelance team, while basic search simply allows quick browsing of the found freelancers data with an option to jump to this expert's profile.
