Profile tabs - My Jobs and My Career
You can show career information on each BuddyPress member profile. Employers get a My Jobs tab with their jobs and the applications they received. Candidates get a My Career tab with their applications, resume and saved jobs.
Profile Tabs is on by default. To turn it off, go to Career Board > Settings > Integrations, open the BuddyPress card, and switch off Profile Tabs. Turn it off if your BuddyPress theme already provides equivalent tabs.
Turning Profile Tabs off also turns off Application Notifications.
My Jobs (employers)
Section titled “My Jobs (employers)”The tab shows on a profile when the member can post jobs and either has at least one job or is viewing their own profile.
| Sub-tab | Who sees it | What it shows |
|---|---|---|
| Posted | Anyone who can see the tab | The member’s jobs, with a count in the tab label |
| Applications | The profile owner and site moderators | Applications received across the owner’s jobs |
The profile owner sees their own count across all job statuses. Other visitors see a count of published jobs only.
The owner also gets a + Post a New Job button on both screens, linking to your Post a Job page.
My Career (candidates)
Section titled “My Career (candidates)”The tab shows on a profile when the member can apply for jobs and either is viewing their own profile or has a published resume.
| Sub-tab | Who sees it | What it shows |
|---|---|---|
| Applications | The profile owner and site moderators | The member’s submitted applications |
| Resume | The owner always. Visitors only when a published resume exists | The member’s resume |
| Saved | The profile owner and site moderators | Jobs the member has bookmarked |
Owners get action buttons: Browse Jobs on Applications, Edit Resume on Resume (opens the Resumes tab of the candidate dashboard), and Browse More Jobs on Saved. The owner’s resume view includes private content. Visitors see the published resume only.
Who sees which tab
Section titled “Who sees which tab”Tabs depend on what the member is allowed to do, not on their role name. Administrators and custom roles that can post jobs or apply for jobs get the matching tab. A plain candidate does not get My Jobs, and a plain employer does not get My Career.
The Applications, My Applications and Saved screens are private. Only the profile owner and site moderators see them. Candidates cannot see each other’s applications, and employers cannot see a candidate’s application list.
Styling
Section titled “Styling”The tabs use your theme’s BuddyPress layout with the plugin’s own job and resume styles. No theme changes are needed.
