Editing candidate details inline

How to edit name, title, company, location, tags, and star rating directly on the profile.

Written by Amogh Balikai

Every editable field in the profile header is edited by clicking it directly — there's no separate Edit screen.

How it works:

  • Click any field (name, title, company, location) to turn it into an editable input in place.

  • Press Enter or click outside to save; press Escape to cancel and revert.

  • Star rating: click a star to set the rating; click the already-active star to clear it to 0.

  • Tags: click the tags area to open an autocomplete against your account's tag library; press Enter or comma to add a tag, Backspace to remove the last one.

Example: Correcting a candidate's current title mid-call takes one click, one edit, and clicking away.

Things to know:

  • On a locked profile, only admins can edit these fields.

  • Editing a name that duplicates an existing candidate triggers a non-blocking alert — it won't stop your save.

  • Every edit is logged to the activity feed as "Profile updated: [field] changed from [old] to [new]."
