Pausing your profile

  2. Access pause or delete profile
    Scroll down in the settings until you find "Pause or delete profile". Click on it.

  3. Select pause

  4. Set pause duration and reason
    Decide how many months you want to pause your profile. You can choose between 3, 6, 9, 18, or 24 months. You also have the option to provide a reason:

    • I'm not looking for a new job right now: If you're not currently searching for a new position
    • I've already received enough job suggestions and don't need more: If you've received sufficient offers
    • I've already found a new job: If you've successfully found a new position
    • Other: For other reasons
  5. Confirm pause
    Click "Pause" to pause your profile for the desired period. You won't receive any job suggestions or newsletters in the meantime. Any job suggestions you've already received and ongoing application processes won't be affected.

  6. Reactivate your profile early
    If you want to reactivate your profile before the pause period ends, you can use the options in your settings to reactivate it directly and use the platform as usual. Click "Reactivate profile" to do this.

Deleting your profile

  1. Initiate deletion
    Click "Pause or delete profile" in your settings.

  2. Select delete
    Choose "I want to delete my profile completely" and click "Next".

  3. Provide reason and confirm deletion
    You have the option to provide a reason for the deletion. Keep in mind that this will permanently delete your profile from the platform and it cannot be restored. Click "Delete permanently" to complete the process.

After pausing or deleting your profile, the changes take effect immediately. If you pause your profile, you can return at any time, while deletion is permanent.
