    I don't know if they rectified this recently, but in my case, if I upload my CV (apart from their default profile), and go to "My Profile", and click "Access Settings" next to the profile, then I can select my CV instead of the default profile from the dropdown, and set it as the default searchable CV for recruiters etc. This effectively hides the profile from others, and makes your CV searchable like normal jobswerve.
    Hahahaha! There must have had so much negative feedback that they have enabled this today!

    It doesnt change the displayed profile but now you have an 'associated cv' title displayed on the home page.

    I tried numerous times on that drop down as it seemed obvious you should be able to make a selection. But, it my 'feedback to them, they just said upload your cv and create your profile.

      I've bailed out too. It lets you remove the profile via the 'My Profile' tab towards the bottom of the page - the pane with the tabs for 'CV's' and 'saved searches'. Got rid of the CV too, just incase they try any more tomfoolery.

      Incidently, they've managed to set my location to Italy. Not sure why since i've never so much as set foot in the country. Would that make me a suitable candidate for a gig as an Admin Assistant in Brindisi at 150 a day? JS seem to think so

        Lol true, but the big difference is that the default "CV" that agents/recruiters get to download is your CV, instead of the crap profile. Earlier, since we had no way to change the default downloadable CV, agents got the weirdly formatted JB profile, which is no more the case

          They may have changed this option a bit lately. I also had my profile crap searchable by default even though I uploaded my CV. Now it let me select which one I want to make searchable. So, looks like they listened to complaints.

          But what really bothers me is when I apply through jobserve I often receive a no-reply@iprofile.org email that my CV has been added to iprofile. Of course, it is totally wrong and each time I have to delete that profile.
          My mind has gone blank. I wonder if it was always that way.

            The iprofile thing is from the agency whose job you applied for. Its not a jobswerve thing.
