If you only want to use the career portal to search for suitable job vacancies, employers and events, you do not need to enter more than the mandatory information. If you would like to receive personalized suggestions or would like to connect directly via this platform, it makes sense to provide additional information, in some cases it is also required. Even if you apply via the platform, a completed profile can be an advantage, as it gives the recruiter a good first impression of you.
