A candidate profile contains information about people who are, or could be, interested in an open position. On the other hand, a contact profile contains information about people who are related to the business but may not necessarily be candidates for open positions, like a hiring manager or a lead.

How to create a contact profile?

When you create a new candidate, in the tab ‘Contact’ you will see the field ‘Type.

Open the picklist and select whether you want to save that profile as a candidate or a contact profile (you can choose both).

To create a new contact, select ‘Contact’ and then press ‘Save.’ Now, when you select ‘Contact’ below the name of the profile, you will see their contact card.
