How do I start a wellfound:ai Search?

How to start your first search

The first step to starting a search is to create a Project.

To start a Project, please follow this guide.

Once you have a Project, please follow these steps:

1. Open up the Projects page here.
2. Click the Project related to your search. It will automatically open you to the ‘Search’ page.

3. When you start a Project, our AI tools automatically create a search based on your description. The filters are at the top of the page. You can use this search as is or make it more specific by clicking the slider icon next to the search filters.

4. From the new window, click on the filter you want to change from the lefthand side. You can select from:
   • Location
   • Job Function
   • Tenure
   • Skills
   • Companies
   • Education
   • Keywords

6. Once a filter is selected, you can adjust the filter settings on the right-hand side.
7. You can remove filters from the top area by pressing 'X' on the filter term. This will reset the related filter settings.
8. The ‘View Results’ number will change as you make adjustments to preview the number of candidates.
9. When you are ready, press ‘View Results’ to be redirected to the main search page, where you can process the candidate profiles related to the search.

Please note:

Results from a candidate search must be processed by 10 candidates at a time.
