Resume Builder - Overview
Candidates can build structured resumes on your site, attach one to a job application, and choose whether employers can find it. You decide who can browse the candidate directory.
What candidates can add
Section titled “What candidates can add”A resume is made of sections. Each section holds entries.
| Section | Fields |
|---|---|
| Professional Summary | A free-text overview |
| Work Experience | Job title, company, employment type, location, start and end date, “Currently Working Here”, description, skills used |
| School | School name, certificate, field of study, start and end date, grade, description |
| College / University | Institution, degree type, field of study, start and end date, GPA, description, achievements |
| Skills | Skill and proficiency level (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert) |
| Languages | Language and proficiency level (Basic, Conversational, Fluent, Native) |
| Certifications | Certificate name, issuing body, issue and expiry date, credential ID and URL |
| Portfolio & Links | Label (for example “GitHub”) and URL |
The builder also has two profile fields that feed the candidate directory filters: Years of experience and Open to new opportunities.
Candidates open and close each section, and add, edit or remove entries in it.
Attach a resume to an application
Section titled “Attach a resume to an application”When a candidate applies for a job, they can pick one of their saved resumes. The employer sees the resume you built here, not only an uploaded file.
Multiple resumes
Section titled “Multiple resumes”Candidates can keep more than one resume, for example one for software roles and one for design roles. My Resumes on the candidate dashboard lists each resume with its date.
You set the limit under Career Board → Settings → Resumes → Max Resumes Per Candidate. The default is 2 and you can set 1 to 20. When a limit applies, the dashboard shows a count such as “2 of 2 resumes”.
Who can see a resume
Section titled “Who can see a resume”Every resume has a Public switch in the builder header. It is off by default.
- Off (Private): only the candidate and employers they apply to can see the resume.
- On (Public): the resume has its own page at
/resume/{slug}/and appears in the candidate directory (the Find Candidates page).
You control the audience under Career Board → Settings → Resumes:
- Candidate directory visibility - “Public - anyone can browse”, “Logged-in members only” or “Approved employers only”. You tick approved employers on their user profile.
- Single resume visibility - “Public - anyone can view”, “Logged-in members only” or “Approved employers only”.
A resume appears in the directory only when the candidate has turned on Public and your setting allows the visitor to browse.
Members who have blocked each other do not see each other’s resumes in the candidate directory.
