- Is ProfileX a resume builder?
- No. ProfileX replaces the resume entirely. It is your permanent professional identity — a living profile you build once and own, not a document you keep re-tailoring. There are no forced resume uploads.
- Which tier should I start on?
- Foundation if you just want a real, portable profile and to apply with one click. Verified if your field cares about background checks or licenses — healthcare, finance, trades, education. Intelligence if you want salary benchmarking and AI guidance, plus the Insights layer that unlocks Career Playbook, Career Shift, and Job Search Mode.
- How does the student discount work?
- Students get 75% off the base tiers — Foundation, Verified, and Intelligence — for up to four cumulative years. The discount does not apply to the Insights add-on, the career engines, Candidate TPE, or Recruiter-Led JSM.
- Why do some engines require Insights?
- Career Playbook, Career Shift Engine, and Job Search Mode all run on the Insights analytics layer. You get Insights either as the $25/mo add-on on Foundation or Verified, or bundled into ProfileX Intelligence.
- Can money buy me better visibility?
- Never. There is no priority ranking, no pay-to-win, and no advertising on ProfileX. You decide who sees your profile, and verified data — not spend — is what earns trust.
- What happens to Job Search Mode when I get hired?
- We reward outcomes, not churn. You can toggle Job Search Mode off the moment you land a role. With the insurance billing option, we even refund unused time prorated in 15-day blocks. Nothing renews silently — you are always prompted before any extension.
- Can I really turn Candidate TPE on and off?
- Yes. When TPE is off you keep every CPT you have completed and can still browse pipelines — you just stop being included in active candidate pools and can't enroll in new CPTs. Toggle it back on anytime; your seat history is restored. It is always a switch you control, never an auto-listing.
- Can I cancel or downgrade anytime?
- Anytime. Add-ons and engines are switches you control, and your profile and data are always yours to export or delete.
