Confirmed.

I tried the above steps out and you can't really search based on languages.
In my case, the results are returned as  search-results for a group. This means that if there is a group that has a name matching  language being searched for, results will only show people belonging to that group.

If the search query does not match any groups, the search returns nothing.

e.g 

1) 
search for "english" returns a few results plus a link to a group called "english" 
https://mozillians.org/en-US/group/english/

e.g search for "Swahili" returns nothing as there is no group with the same name
https://mozillians.org/en-US/group/swahili/ --generates a 404

This will be fixed as part of the Mozillians site overhaul. I've reproduced this in dev and it works as expected. We can expect to see this feature in a few weeks  time.

This seems to have already been done in peoplemo. Closing out, reopen with more details if I'm wrong.
