Your profile is what companies see when they search Staffer or look you up on an application. Open Edit resume from your dashboard to see and change it.

​
What you can edit

  • Headline: a one-line summary, shown right under your name.
  • Open to work, Engagement, Work mode, Relocation: short preferences, each a simple choice like Yes, No, or Unspecified.
  • Location: your city and country.
  • Languages: add as many as you like, and mark one as primary.
  • Career summary: a few sentences on what you do and what you’re looking for.
  • Skills: add or remove them freely, one at a time or several at once.
Changes sit in a draft until you click Save. Discard throws them away and puts back what was last saved. If you reload the page or navigate away by accident, your unsaved edits are still there when you come back to the same browser tab.

​
What’s locked, and why

Your name, email, phone number, and LinkedIn URL don’t save if your profile is only partly confirmed. Staffer needs to be sure you’re really the person behind the profile before letting you change the details a company would use to reach you. See Claim your profile for what fully confirmed means and how to get there. If you’re already fully confirmed and one of these still won’t save, email support@staffer.com. There’s no field for your full name on this page, even when you’re fully confirmed. If you’re fully confirmed, ask your copilot to change it.

​
Experience and education

Staffer shows your work history and education as a read-only timeline, pulled from your public profile. You can’t add or edit individual roles or schools here yet.

​
Your photo and cover image

You can upload a profile photo and a cover image, and crop each one to fit. Companies see both wherever your profile appears. Changing your photo needs a fully confirmed profile. See Claim your profile.

​
Your CV

You can’t upload a CV to your profile itself. Send one when you apply, or upload a newer one later from the Resume tab on an application. The company’s score for that application is updated from the new CV. See Applying to a job.

​
Profile settings

The profile settings page shows your account, how you sign in, and whether your profile is claimed and fully confirmed.

​
What a company sees

What you edit shows up straight away, to companies searching Staffer and on your profile in any job you’re part of. Fields you haven’t edited show the public information Staffer has, which can change as public sources update. It never overwrites something you’ve set yourself. There’s one exception. When a company adds you to a job, or you apply to one, Staffer keeps a copy of your profile as it was at that moment. Editing your profile afterward changes what companies see from then on, but not the copy saved with that application.

​
Common questions

There’s no field for it on this page. If your profile is fully confirmed, ask your copilot to change it. It checks with you before saving.
Your profile is probably only partly confirmed. See Claim your profile for how to fully confirm it. Already fully confirmed and still stuck? Email support@staffer.com.
Only going forward. A company that already reviewed you for a specific application keeps the copy of your profile from that moment. Your edit is what everyone sees from now on, including that same company the next time they look you up.
