What is an iProfile?
The iProfile is the industry standard format for the online CV that gives candidates control over their information. When a candidate applies to an iProfile Compatible recruitment company they are asked to complete or update their iProfile, depending on whether they already own one, as part of the registration process. �
What are the benefits of having an iProfile
