The more information you have in the About Section the more likely it is you will be matched when a company performs a search.
To increase the chances of being matched use keywords that company managers would search for when trying to find a contractor.
đŸ’¡ Pro Tip on Grammar & Spelling
Even if TalentMatch helps you get found, poor grammar or spelling can still cost you opportunities. Before finalizing your profile or job post:
-
Use a grammar-checking tool like Grammarly or QuillBot.
-
Run your text through Microsoft Word or Google Docs spell-check.
-
Read everything out loud—errors are easier to catch that way.
A polished profile makes you look more professional and increases your chances of getting hired.
Here are some of the items that a company would search for:
- Software Skills that are not located in any of the drop-downs "ie: AUTOCAD"
- Personality traits that match up with a job role "ie: outgoing, detail orientated"
- Any personal core values "ie: hard-working, integrity, responsible, training"
- Give an overview of your education and experience
