How do I complete my profile?

LiveRec EditorialUpdated

To complete your profile, open Account settings and work through the tabs: Profile (with About, Summary, Experience, Education and Certificates), Résumé, Skills & aptitude test, Preferences, Verification and Notifications. Use Edit on each tab to add or change entries. Some jobs ask for a minimum profile before you can apply, and the apply screen lists exactly what is missing.

Steps

  1. Open the account menu and choose Account settings.
  2. Pick a tab, for example Experience or Education, and choose Edit.
  3. Add or change entries, then Save.
  4. If the apply screen says Complete your profile to apply, use Add beside each unfinished row.

  4. Preferences. Tell us the work you want.
  5. Verification. Optional checks that add badges employers can see.
