Manage your Consultant profile
Your profile serves as your skills file each time you are positioned on a Request for Proposals (RFP) to become a Consultant on a project. The more you complete your profile, the greater the chances of your proposals being considered. In this article, we'll look at how to complete and modify your profile to keep your information up-to-date.

Manage your profile
You can access your profile by clicking on the icon in the top right-hand corner of your screen, then on About me and My Profile.
On the page that will appear, you can see at a glance the completion rate of your profile, thanks to the percentage displayed on the right.
Next, several sections of information are available, which we will detail below, which you can edit by clicking on Modify or the icon, and saving your changes by clicking on Save.
Good to know
You can also pre-fill your profile by uploading a CV on the platform, by clicking on Upload a resume in the top right-hand corner. Your CV information will then be transposed into the various sections.
Important
If you upload another resume later on, the sections will not be updated; you will have to do this manually.
