Who can do this: Owners, Admins and Members, on a plan with Resume Builder.
Product: Resume Builder · Where: Profile → Share candidate
Click Share candidate on the profile, select the branding and candidate appearance, then click Publish candidate link. Your client can open the link in a browser, without a login, for 30 days.
How to share a profile by link
Open the candidate's profile.
Click Share candidate at the top. You can also click Export → Share candidate profile.
In the Share candidate profile panel, choose the Branding and the Candidate Appearance (resume template).
Click Publish candidate link. You see "Profile published".
Click Copy URL and paste the link into your email or message to the client.
Result
The panel shows "Candidate profile published", the link and how many days it has left. View candidate link opens the profile as your client sees it. The profile page shows "This profile is published" with the days left, Unpublish and View candidate link.
The published banner on the profile
The profile page shows how many days the link has left, with Unpublish and View candidate link.
Note: Sharing counts as an export. The panel says 1 credit per link; you're only charged once per profile until it's edited. If you already exported the profile and nobody edited it since, sharing is free.
How to change, extend or stop the link
Change what the client sees: open Share candidate again and select another branding or candidate appearance. The link your client has updates right away.
Keep it open longer: from day 10, the panel shows Extend. Extending starts a new 30 days.
Stop sharing: click Unpublish in the panel or on the profile page. Anyone who opens the link then sees "The profile you're trying to access is not available."
Good to know
After 30 days the link stops working. You then see "This profile's sharing link has expired" with Extend on the profile.
Extending follows the same credit rule: free unless the profile was edited since its last charged export.
A link shares one candidate. To share several candidates on one page, you need Client Portal.
Common questions
How long does a shared link work? 30 days. Extend it from day 10 to start a new 30 days.
Does a share link use a credit? Only if the profile hasn't been exported since it was last edited.

Pro tip: Click View candidate link before you send the link, to see the profile exactly as your client will.
