Keep Separate Job Profiles for Every Search You Run
One search, two different yous
Most job seekers aren't looking for one thing. You might be a backend engineer applying for a senior platform role in the morning, and for a more hands-on product role in a different industry in the afternoon. Or you're a designer who's also quietly applying to a completely different line of work.
Trying to jam all of that into a single profile means your CV and cover letter keep getting pulled in two directions — and neither application is as strong as it could be.
myKaria now lets you keep separate job profiles, so each search gets its own clean, consistent version of you.
How it works
Instead of one profile that has to cover everything, you can create a profile per search. Each profile holds its own details:
- Your experience, tailored to that direction
- The skills and tools that matter for those roles
- Your target roles and the companies you're interested in
- The voice and positioning you want to lead with
Set a default profile if that's the one you use most, and switch between them whenever your focus shifts. When you go to generate a CV or cover letter, you pick the profile that matches the search — and the output speaks directly to that audience.
You can even fill a profile from an existing CV, so you're not retyping everything when you want to spin up a new direction.
Why separate profiles win
A CV that talks about "10 years of platform engineering" reads wrong when you're applying for a junior product role — and a junior-style CV undersells you for a senior job. Recruiters skim fast; a document that's clearly aimed at them gets read, and one that's obviously generic gets skipped.
Separate profiles let you speak the right language for each application, without rebuilding your whole dossier every time.
Plans
Free and Basic plans keep a single profile, which works great when you're focused on one search. Premium plans let you keep multiple, so you can run a change of direction alongside your main line of work. If you ever hit the limit, myKaria tells you which plans let you add more.
Start a new direction
If you're eyeing a change of industry, a pivot, or a parallel search, set up a second profile and give each application its best shot. Your job search shouldn't force you to dilute who you are — it should let you show it.
