FAQ for candidates

What does my resume PDF include?

Your name, email, phone and location, your headline (in place of the resume title) and summary, then each section you filled in: work experience, education, school, certifications, skills, languages and portfolio. You need to be signed in to download it. See Print and download a resume.

How do I print my resume?

Open your resume page and click Print. The browser’s print dialog opens with a print layout that hides the site chrome. A short resume prints on one page. If it looks wrong, see Troubleshooting: resume printing.

Who can see my resume?

That is up to you and the site. You choose whether each resume is public. The site owner decides who may browse the candidate directory and who may open a single resume profile (anyone, logged-in members, or approved employers). See Find Candidates.

Can I get job alerts without an account?

Yes, when the site allows it. Enter your email and search, then click the link in the confirmation email. Alerts do not start until you confirm. Each email has an unsubscribe link. See Job alerts.

How many alerts can I have?

Up to 10 by default. The site owner can change the limit under Settings > Job Alerts.

How often will I get emails?

Each alert is instant, daily or weekly. Instant alerts go out when a matching job is published. Daily digests are sent at 8:00 UTC and weekly digests on Mondays at 8:00 UTC. You can turn off the job alert email under Email Notifications in your dashboard account section, or use the unsubscribe link in any alert email.

Can I search for jobs near me?

Yes, on sites that use the job map. Pick a place and a radius in kilometres. See Job map.

Why did I stop getting bell notifications for a job?

If the job was removed or closed, the notification says so in its own sentence and the link is shown as plain text, because the page no longer exists. See Notifications.
