## Search the open market

1. **Open the Sourcing tab**

   Open a live role in `Roles` and select `Sourcing`.

2. **Describe who you want**

   Type a search in `Search the open market` and click `Search`. For example: "software engineer in Bangalore".

3. **Check the results**

   Tandem turns your search into `Search criteria` and lists the people who match, each with a match score out of 100.

> **Credits.** Each new person a search returns uses 3 credits per candidate. People you've already seen are free.

## Work with the results

When a role goes live, Tandem runs a first search for you and reports the results in the role's chat.
