# Search for Candidates in Juicebox
> Learn how to use Juicebox most effectively.
## Introduction
Juicebox uses AI to understand your searches, configure filters, and support a full natural-language prompt, giving you real-life superpowers in searching through 800mm+ profiles.
## How to search in Juicebox
To search for candidates most effectively, please follow this method:
**Step 1:** Create a new project
**Step 2:** Describe the type of candidate you are looking for using your natural language. The **more** details or context here, the better!
**Step 3:** Run your prompt to review the filters and criteria populated
**Step 4:** Click “Run Search” to review ranked search pool
**Reminder:** To **narrow** your search, edit your project’s filters. To **rank** your search, edit your project’s criteria.
## Reviewing Results
Once you run your results, candidates will appear in a ranked view, giving you the best matched candidates right off the bat. Each profile will receive a score against the set criteria, and will be shown as:
1. **Good Match (Green thumbs up):** signifies that the criteria are fulfilled, either through explicit mention on the candidate’s profile or through AI inference.
2. **Potential fit (Yellow thumbs up):** suggests that the criteria are likely met but with some ambiguity, or that there is some evidence missing. \*\*
3. **Not a match (Red stop sign):** indicates that there is no evidence that the criteria are met based on the information available. \*\*
To gain deeper insight into an individual candidate or action on multiple candidates at once, switch between the Classic and Table views.
