Profile Headlines & Basics

• Your headline should clearly state your professional identity - Instead of "No idea what I'm doing," use "Senior Backend Engineer specializing in Java" or similar

• Profile picture helps you stand out - Professional, clear image where you're smiling (avoid things like code screenshots or poor quality selfies)

• Location accuracy matters - Always list your current country/city of residence as some positions are region specific

• LinkedIn is encourage - Profiles linked to your LinkedIn professional accounts help us know more about you and verify your information

Skills & Experience

• Be specific with skills - If you're a Java engineer and don't list Java, we won't find you in searches

• List core tech stack for each role - We need to track your experience history across different jobs. We don’t just want to know you know Java, we want to know when and where you’ve recently used it professionally!

• Focus on technical details, not business context- "I built RESTful APIs using Spring Boot" is more valuable than "I worked on a social media app with millions of users" Business context is helpful but technical details are a MUST

• Job descriptions should emphasize:

  • Technologies used (languages, frameworks, tools)

  • Technical contributions and responsibilities

  • Timeframe

  • Quantifiable achievements where possible

Projects Section

• Only include standout projects - Not every project you've worked on, just those showing unique skills or achievements

• Avoid duplicating information - Projects section should complement, not repeat job experience details

Working Preferences

• Hourly rates - Set a competitive desired rate or salary on your profile, understanding you'll be competing with others

• We pay bi-weekly for contractor positions - Most roles are IC (Independent Contractor) with no benefits

• Notice period matters - Be accurate about your availability (typically 15 days in Latin America)

• Language proficiency - English communication skills are essential; profiles must be in English

Tips for Standing Out

• Strong intro paragraph - Include years of experience, main technology stack, and specialized expertise

• Highlight certifications - Especially important for specialized roles

• Education details matter - Include degrees and relevant training

• Keep information current - Outdated information makes the matching process difficult
