"AI serving your career: Whileresume perfects your CV and connects you to the right opportunities"
Keith SHEMA
Co-founder & CEOAre you a candidate?
- How do recruiters find me?
Recruiters use our advanced filters (position, sector, city, preferences) to identify candidates who exactly match their needs. Your profile only appears in relevant searches according to your predefined criteria.
- Can I modify my criteria after registration?
Yes, you can modify your position, sector, city and contract type preferences at any time. These changes are immediately taken into account in recruiters' searches.
- How does AI work to create my CV?
AI analyzes your information and creates a professional CV adapted to your sector. You can choose from different formats (European, corporate, themed) and AI automatically optimizes the presentation of your skills to maximize your impact.
- Is my personal data protected?
All your data is encrypted and stored securely. You have complete control over your profile and can choose to use an anonymous CV if you wish. No information is shared without your consent.
- What happens when a recruiter contacts me?
You receive a notification with the opportunity details. The recruiter contacts you directly because your profile matches their search criteria. You can then communicate and decide if the opportunity interests you.
- Is the platform really free?
Yes, registration and use of the platform are 100% free for candidates. You can create your profile, upload your CV, use AI and receive recruiter contacts without any fees.
Are you a recruiter or HR professional?
- Can I filter CVs?
Yes, our platform has an advanced search system specifically designed to facilitate your recruitment. You can filter candidates according to many criteria: specific skills, years of experience, geographic location, education level, desired contract type, availability, and many others. These precise filters allow you to quickly identify profiles that exactly match your needs, without wasting time browsing through irrelevant CVs.
- How do I contact candidates?
Connecting with candidates is simple and direct. An integrated messaging system on the platform allows you to contact candidates who interest you in complete confidentiality. You can also, if the candidate has chosen to share their contact details, reach them directly by email or phone. This flexibility allows you to choose the most appropriate communication method for each situation and establish quick contact with your future talent.
- Which sectors are covered?
Our CV database is deliberately open to all sectors of activity and all types of professions. Whether you're recruiting in IT, finance, marketing, industry, sales, healthcare, education or any other field, you will find qualified profiles. This diversity makes our database rich and allows you to recruit for any position, from junior to senior, across all professional sectors.
- What is the difference with LinkedIn?
Our CV database fundamentally differs from LinkedIn and classic job boards through its qualitative approach. Unlike general platforms where you have to browse through thousands of inactive or unengaged profiles, our database only features candidates who are truly available and ready to be contacted. The database is qualified and regularly updated to ensure profile relevance. Our precise filters (skills, experience, location, availability...) allow you to quickly identify the right profiles without drowning in the crowd. Connection is direct, simple and without intermediaries, far from the noise and distractions of professional social networks. You also gain access to rare talents, sometimes absent from major traditional networks. In summary: more relevance, less noise, and candidates truly open to opportunities.
Mobile Application
- Is the application free?
The Whileresume application is completely free for candidates, without any limitations. For recruiters, the application is also free during the entire beta test phase. Enjoy all features free of charge to discover our platform and find your talent!
- Which sectors are covered?
The Whileresume application focuses primarily on tech and digital professions: developers, software engineers, data scientists, designers, IT project managers, DevOps, and all digital profiles. Beyond this core business, our platform is gradually opening up to other sectors such as finance, marketing, industry, sales or education. This tech specialization allows us to offer you a highly qualified candidate base in the digital field, while expanding our horizons to other areas of expertise.
- In which languages is the application available?
The Whileresume application is available in French and English. You can change the language at any time from the menu by accessing "Language Preferences". The interface instantly adapts to your choice to offer you an optimal experience in your preferred language.
- Can I access my account from the web?
Yes, absolutely! Your Whileresume account is accessible both from the mobile application and from the web interface. All your data is automatically synchronized between both platforms, allowing you to manage your profile, check your messages and access all features from any device.
- How do I modify my personal information?
You can modify your personal information at any time from the application menu. You have the option to change your avatar, first name, last name and location. For recruiters, this information is particularly important: make sure to correctly enter your location as well as the VAT number and your company information for an optimal experience.
- How do I change my password?
Changing your password is simple and quick. Go to the main menu of the application, then select the "Change password" option. Follow the instructions to securely set your new password.
- How do I delete my account?
If you wish to permanently delete your account, access the main menu then select "Delete my account". For security reasons, you will need to validate this action via a confirmation email. We will also ask you to indicate the reason for your departure in order to continuously improve our services. This action is irreversible and will result in the deletion of all your data.
- How does the AI analysis of my CV work?
Our advanced artificial intelligence automatically analyzes your CV to extract essential information. As a candidate, you receive a clear summary of your profile. For recruiters who view your profile, the AI generates a professional presentation (which you can modify at any time) as well as a detailed summary of your projects and experiences. This feature is completely free and you can update your CV at any time to benefit from new optimized summaries.
- Can I modify my CV and my availability?
Yes, you have total control over your CV and your visibility. You can modify your CV at any time, and choose from three availability statuses: "Available" (actively looking), "Open to opportunities" (open to interesting opportunities), or "Unavailable" (your profile will not be visible to recruiters). These changes are instant and allow you to adapt your presence on the platform according to your current professional situation.
- How do I access CVs as a recruiter?
After your registration as a recruiter, your data will need to be verified by our teams before you can access the CV database. This verification process ensures the quality and security of our platform. To speed up the validation of your account, we recommend indicating during your registration why you are using the application and providing complete information about your company. Once your account is validated, you will have immediate access to all qualified profiles.
- How does the messaging system work?
The integrated messaging system allows direct and secure communication between recruiters and candidates. Only the recruiter can initiate the first contact, which protects candidates from unwanted solicitations. Once the conversation is started, exchanges can continue freely between both parties. This approach ensures quality and relevant exchanges for everyone.
- How do notifications work?
A notification center is available directly on the first page of your interface, whether you are a recruiter or candidate. You can enable notifications to be instantly alerted of any new message in your conversations. This allows you to stay responsive and not miss any important opportunity, while keeping control over your notification preferences.
