Create Profile

Build a public profile on DINQ.

A Profile is DINQ's public professional profile and link-in-bio feature for individuals. It brings together professional identity, public links, projects, research, and work in one shareable place.

Individual Profiles

A Profile helps visitors quickly understand who you are, what you work on, and why your background is relevant. Use it as a public portfolio, professional bio, technical profile, or resume replacement.

Individual Profiles can include:

  • Basic profile information, role, location, and expertise.
  • Projects, shipped products, papers, repositories, and portfolio links.
  • Social links such as GitHub, LinkedIn, Google Scholar, Hugging Face, or a personal website.
  • Public experience, education, and professional background.

Organization profiles have been retired. Team workspaces remain available for member and credit management; they are a separate feature, not public organization profiles.

Create and publish a Profile

When you enter the Profile creation flow, choose one of the available setup options:

  • Import: Pull information from LinkedIn or a personal website.
  • Upload: Upload a PDF resume.
  • Start from scratch: Fill in your Profile manually.

If you import a link or upload a resume, DINQ parses the information and prepares a first draft for review. If you start from scratch, enter your profile information manually, including avatar, name, role, company, education, location, expertise tags, and short bio.

Next, claim a unique handle for your public Profile, such as dinq.me/yourname. DINQ checks whether your desired link is available. After choosing your link, sign in or create an account using email, Google, or GitHub. DINQ connects your Profile and handle to your account, then publishes your Profile.

Once your Profile is live, add external links to platforms such as GitHub, LinkedIn, Google Scholar, Hugging Face, or your personal website. DINQ formats these links into visual DINQ Cards on your Profile.

Verification

Verification helps increase trust in Profiles and accounts. You can verify education, professional, or social identity signals so visitors can better understand the quality and authenticity of a Profile.

For hiring teams and talent, verification can reduce friction for first-time visitors by making key background signals easier to recognize.

Manage your resumes

The Resume tab at the top of Profile manages your own resumes, not search candidates' profiles. Upload, preview, download, rename, and delete multiple PDF resumes. See Resume Management.
