How do I fill in my profile?

The profile contains different blocks. The information you add into these blocks will be used later when you create a Resume. The information is also searchable and makes it possible to match your experiences to the skill requirements of a project.

Below you will find information about each block and a short video of how to add information in these blocks.

Short description of each block within the profile

Presentation: Under the block presentation is where you will fill out a title and a descriptive text. Remember that it needs to be appealing to a client, so try to make it as selling as possible. This will later be used as a foundation when you create resumes. 

You can summarize your personal and professional qualities in this block, although personal qualities will not be shown in the standard resumes. Your organization will instruct you to fill out your personal qualities if necessary. 

Project & Assignments: Add your earlier assignments and/or projects. Earlier employments should be summarized as one or several assignments.

For every assignment you need to add a description (tasks, responsibilities and results). Tag a few keywords or skills that are related to the assignment (one at a time). A keyword can for example be industries, roles, tools, techniques etc. When you start adding skills you will be given suggestions, use these. If a keyword is missing, you can simply add it, but be accurate about spelling.

Skills: All added competencies from assignments are listed under the Skills block. If you miss a skill you can simply add it manually using the button ¨Add.¨ Rate your competence level between 1-5. For level definitions, click on the link Do you need help assessing your level that will be shown when clicking the pen. 

You have the option to mark your favorite skills using the star symbol to the right. This will give you the opportunity to find more relevant projects based on your interests. Read more
