Setting Up Your Profile

A complete profile helps HireKit provide better AI analysis, more accurate alignment scores, and tailored document generation.

The Onboarding Wizard

When you first sign up, HireKit guides you through a 5-step onboarding wizard:

Step 1: Personal Information

Enter your basic details including name, email, phone number, and location. This information is used in generated documents.

Step 2: Professional Summary

Write or paste your professional summary. This is the foundation for AI-generated content. Be specific about your years of experience and key skills.

Step 3: Upload Your Resume

Upload your current resume (PDF or DOCX, up to 10MB). HireKit's AI will parse it to extract:

  • Work history and experience
  • Education and certifications
  • Skills and competencies

Step 4: Career Preferences

Set your job search preferences:

  • Target roles and industries
  • Preferred locations (including remote options)
  • Salary expectations
  • Company size preferences

Step 5: AI Configuration

Configure your AI usage preferences and review your rate limits for different AI models.

Editing Your Profile Later

You can always update your profile from Settings in the sidebar. Changes to your profile will improve future AI analyses and document generation.

Multiple Profiles

HireKit supports multiple resume profiles, allowing you to target different career paths with distinct resumes and preferences. Switch between profiles using the profile selector at the top of the sidebar.
