How to Build a Verified Skills Profile as a Software Engineer

A verified skills profile closes the gap between keyword resumes and proof of ability. FeedbackAI lets India tech engineers upload a resume for AI autofill, complete structured skills and experience, take free PRACTICE assessments with AI feedback on every response, and opt in to a public profile link when ready — all free to start.

Why a resume alone is not enough

Recruiters scan hundreds of resumes per role. Keywords match; proof does not. Endorsements on LinkedIn are easy to collect. Take-home repos show one project, not breadth across data structures, system design, or domain skills.

A verified skills profile combines structured assessments with consistent rubrics, AI feedback on every response, and an opt-in public link you control.

Step 1 — Sign up and complete basic info (20%)

Create a candidate account at /registration?role=candidate. You can continue with Google or email.

Fill basic info on /profile/user. The dashboard tracks completeness against an 80% threshold before treating your profile as activation-ready.

Step 2 — Add skills and experience (30% combined)

Add at least three skills relevant to your target roles (for example TypeScript, React, Node.js, Python, system design).

Document work history on your profile. Each role improves employer trust when they view your public profile.

Step 3 — Upload your resume to autofill (15%)

From the dashboard, use Upload resume to autofill profile when eligible. AI parses your PDF into skills, experience, and education for review on /profile/review before you confirm.

Step 4 — Take a free PRACTICE assessment (20%)

Browse public practice tests at /assessments. PRACTICE mode includes code exercises (JavaScript, Python, Java, C++), multiple choice, and open-ended questions with AI rubric feedback.

PRACTICE is for self-improvement and profile proof — not a replacement for an employer's scored FORMAL interview round.

Step 5 — Set job preferences (15%)

Set work type, notice period, and expected salary range where comfortable. This helps AI job matching surface relevant roles in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, Chennai, Mumbai, and Delhi NCR.

Step 6 — Opt in to your public profile

Public visibility is opt-in and off by default. When you are ready, enable public profile in settings and share your link at /candidates/[candidateId]/public.

There is no org-wide candidate directory — only per-candidate public URLs when you choose to publish.

Step 7 — Apply with your verified profile

On job detail pages, eligible candidates can apply with a verified profile so assessment history and completeness travel with the application.

Honest boundaries

Public profiles are opt-in. PRACTICE assessments are self-serve practice — not employer-scored formal rounds. Do not use invented match-rate stats in external copy until instrumentation confirms them.
