Once you have done this, you will see a list of all the people whose name matches the one you entered. If there are many people with the same name, you can detect which is the one you are looking for by seeing their pictures or by clicking on their names to see the info they share. You may have to click on the link that says “See More Results” to continue browsing the users if there are too many of them.
Once you have found the one you were looking for, in case you want to send a friend request to that person, just click on the “Add Friend” button that is at the right hand side of its name.
If the user accepts the request, the friend connection will be established immediately.
