It’s easy to create a talent profile! Let’s get started:

My Information:

Profile Picture

Follow these easy steps to add your favorite professional photo to your profile.

To update a Profile Photo:

• Go to the My Information section of the profile builder or My Profile
• Click the blue upload icon next to the image placeholder
• Select a PNG or JPG profile image with a maximum file size of 5MB
• Using the Photo Crop tool, move the box and drag the corners to select the desired area
• Click Crop & Save to save photo or Cancel to continue with another selection

Tips:

• Use a high-resolution image (less than 5MB)
• Be the only person in the picture
• Take the photo in soft, natural light (avoid direct sunlight and overhead light that tends to cast shadows)
• Select a background that is clear and not distracting (a solid-colored wall or simple outdoor background are good options)
• Dress in professional attire
• Smile (who doesn’t like seeing one)
• Select a picture that shows your face so that it takes up most of the frame (best practice is to show your head and top of your shoulders)

Here is an example:

Contact Information

Confirm your name and enter your contact details in the fields provided. Your street address and phone number are not visible on your public profile and are only used for contractual purposes.

To update Contact Information:

Communication Preference

Tell us how you want the TTA team to reach out to you about job opportunities. Select the options that fit your preferred method of communication.
