By enabling profile visibility controls, candidates can choose to make their profiles public when they are available for opportunities or private when they are temporarily unavailable, giving them greater control over when they can be discovered by agencies. Let’s get started 🚀 **Step 1**: Log in to your agent dashboard and click **More** \> **Global Settings** as shown in the screenshot below. ![image1](https://learn.enginehire.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/For%20Candidates%20and%20Clients/Allow%20Candidates%20to%20Control%20Profile%20Visibility/image1.png?width=670&height=271&name=image1.png) **Step 2**: Click the **Profile Settings** option to expand and view its details. ![image6](https://learn.enginehire.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/For%20Candidates%20and%20Clients/Allow%20Candidates%20to%20Control%20Profile%20Visibility/image6.png?width=670&height=235&name=image6.png) **Step 3**: Check the **Show Profile Visibility** **section on candidate profiles** checkbox. ![image4](https://learn.enginehire.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/For%20Candidates%20and%20Clients/Allow%20Candidates%20to%20Control%20Profile%20Visibility/image4.png?width=670&height=261&name=image4.png) The settings will be saved automatically. ![image3](https://learn.enginehire.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/For%20Candidates%20and%20Clients/Allow%20Candidates%20to%20Control%20Profile%20Visibility/image3.png?width=670&height=151&name=image3.png) A **Profile Visibility** section will now appear in the candidate profile. Candidates can turn the **Make Profile Public** toggle **Off** when they are busy or unavailable, and turn it **On** again when they are available to accept jobs.  For demonstration purposes, we are turning the **Make Profile Public** toggle **Off**.  ![image2](https://learn.enginehire.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/For%20Candidates%20and%20Clients/Allow%20Candidates%20to%20Control%20Profile%20Visibility/image2.png?width=670&height=362&name=image2.png) The candidate profile will be hidden from the **Candidate Board** until the **Make Profile Public** toggle is turned back on. ![image5](https://learn.enginehire.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/For%20Candidates%20and%20Clients/Allow%20Candidates%20to%20Control%20Profile%20Visibility/image5.png?width=670&height=301&name=image5.png) - [Onboarding](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/onboarding?hsLang=en) - [Application Forms & Profiles](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/application-forms-profiles?hsLang=en) - [Templates & Communication](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/templates-communication?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Documents](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/templates-communication?hsLang=en#documents) - [Jobs](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/jobs?hsLang=en) - [Payments](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/payments?hsLang=en) - [Integrations](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en) - [App](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/app?hsLang=en) - [For Candidates & Clients](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/for-candidates-clients?hsLang=en) - [Backup Care](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/backup-care?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Instant Book](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/backup-care?hsLang=en#instant-book) - [Data Import & Export](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/data-import-export?hsLang=en) - [Reporting & Logs](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/reporting-logs?hsLang=en) - [Error](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/error?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Authentication](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/error?hsLang=en#authentication) - [Settings](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/settings?hsLang=en) - [Domain](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/domain?hsLang=en) - [Webinars and Training](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/webinars-and-training?hsLang=en) - [Ways to Grow and Make More Money](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/ways-to-grow-and-make-more-money?hsLang=en) - [Placements](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/placements?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Job Board](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/placements?hsLang=en#job-board) - [Enginehire Team Internal Videos](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/enginehire-team-internal-videos?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Settings](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/enginehire-team-internal-videos?hsLang=en#settings) - [AI](https://learn.enginehire.io/en/knowledge/ai?hsLang=en) - Home - Products - Pricing - Blog - Company [![Chill listening crop-3](https://learn.enginehire.io/hs-fs/hubfs/enginehire%20logo%20thin%20dark%201.0-1.png?width=68&height=24&name=enginehire%20logo%20thin%20dark%201.0-1.png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://enginehire.io) Enginehire Help Center Copyright © 2026, Enginehire Inc.
