## Need to find a colleague to ask about your tasks, or just out of curiosity? This article is for you

Need to find a colleague to ask about your tasks, or just out of curiosity? This article is for you.

Here are a few tips for finding a colleague faster in different situations. Pachca has two main tools for this: global search and the **Members** section.

Global search in the sidebar is the quickest way to find a colleague you already know. If you're looking for someone you don't know, the **Members** section works better: it shows cards with large photos and lets you filter the list of colleagues.

### Find the person you were told to contact about a task

Open **Members** → switch to **Table** view → type their name, email, job title or department in the search bar.

### Find out who the new person on the call is

Open **Members** → switch to **Cards** view → type their name, email, job title or department in the search bar → compare the profile pictures on the cards.

### See who's new at the company

Open **Members** → switch to **Cards** view → filter by **Date added** → **Newest first**.

### Find managers you don't work with directly

Open **Members** → switch to **Cards** view → type a department (your own, for example) in the search bar → scroll through the cards. The job title appears under each person's name.

### Find someone you know at your company

Open **Members** → switch to **Cards** view → type their name, email, job title or department in the search bar → look through the cards for someone who looks familiar.

The same steps help you see who's speaking at an internal conference or learn about a colleague when it feels awkward to ask in person.
