What the form asks for
- Who they are: a photo, Gender, the name and the Job title.
- How to reach them: E-mail and Phone.
- Personal details: Date of birth, Nationality and Social security. Fill in only what you need for the hiring.
- Profile: Skills and a Presentation. Pick a skill from the list, or type a new one.
- CV and motivation letter: one file for the CV and one for the Motivation letter. Drop each file on its box, or click the box to choose it.
- More options: links to the person’s profiles on the web, such as LinkedIn or GitHub.
To write the Presentation faster, type a few words and click Write with AI at the bottom left of the field. See Write with AI.
Invite the person to join Skileo
Under How to reach them, turn on the switch that says: Send an invitation to join the software and confirm the account.
When you save, the person gets an e-mail to set a password and open their account. Then they can fill in their own CV, with their experience and education, and keep their personal details up to date.
The switch is only there when you create a CV. For a person you already added, see Edit or delete a CV.
When the person is already in Skileo
The e-mail address is the person’s login in Skileo. If someone already has an account with this address, Skileo doesn’t create a second person: it adds that person to your CV database.
Common questions
Can I add many people at once?
Yes, from a spreadsheet. See Import CVs from a spreadsheet.
Why can't I see Add new?
You need permission to make changes in the CV database. Ask the Business owner of your workspace. See Who can see and change CVs.
Why is the phone field greyed out?
You may not have permission to change contact information. Ask the Business owner of your workspace for the Contact information permission.
What happens if I leave the page before I save?
If you changed something, Skileo asks you first, so you don’t lose it by mistake.
