Onboarding a Career Hub profile
Purpose
This article describes how Eightfold helps onboard an employee on to Career Hub and create their profile.
Audience
A user logging into Career Hub for the first time can follow the detailed steps listed in this article for their onboarding. If you're a return user, read Developing your profile for information on updating and maintaining your profile.
Overview
As a first-time user of Career Hub, your initial interaction involves a welcome screen, featuring the Terms of Service (ToS) and a synthesized overview of your profile. This profile summary is automatically populated from your organization's HRIS, streamlining the process of profile completion.
Furthermore, Career Hub facilitates profile updates by providing users with the option to either upload their resume directly or integrate their LinkedIn profile seamlessly.
Setting up and building your profile
Follow these steps to set up and build your Career Hub profile:
- Sign in to your Career Hub account. You will be greeted with a welcome screen that includes a quick summary of your profile retrieved from the HRIS, and the Terms of Service (TOS). You can agree to the ToS and click Continue.
- After clicking Next, Career Hub allows you to use your email or LinkedIn profile URL to build your profile from your past job applications. When you enter your external email or LinkedIn profile URL in the Build your profile window, Eightfold accesses your past job applications that use the same information to build your Career Hub profile.

- Career Hub looks for your profile within the TA talent pool, and automatically fills in the sections for your profile by using the information provided in a previous job application. If you would like to decline this auto-retrieval of profile information and enter it manually, you can click No for Do you want to add this information to your profile to get started?.
- Career Hub uses the information from your previous job applications to auto-fill your profile. However, some information may still be missing. These gaps can be filled by using the content from your resume. You can also upload your LinkedIn profile by following the instructions provided in the Did you know LinkedIn can generate a resume for you? section.
- Review each profile section: Work Experience, Education, Skills, and Goals (this pertains to data added using public career information or resume upload).
- Confirm your profile settings.
- View your Career Hub profile after successfully completing all activation steps.
Note: After creating your profile, you cannot delete it on your own. However, you can modify the details you've added. If you want to delete your profile, contact your IT Admin for assistance. A candidate whose profile has been deleted can still successfully sign-in, but encounters a “Not Authorized” (HTTP 403) response across Career Hub pages. This is expected behavior.
