We normally delete certain unused or other accounts once the need for the account is no more. And deleting your dice profile is one such action. And if you’re someone looking to delete the dice profile you used for any technical career development after finding the job, this article is for you.
In this article, we will be discussing what a dice profile is and why to delete it, how to delete a dice profile, what the other alternative is for deleting the profile, etc. Keep reading to learn more about the Dice profile.
What is a Dice Profile, and Why Delete It?
Our Dice profile is something we open with the Dice knowledge centre looking for a technical job that matches our profile.
They have more than a million tech jobs, with many companies posting new job opportunities to recruit talented employees to do the job.
When we create a Dice profile with them, we get to make ourselves visible as a candidate displaying skills matching the related job opportunities.
All you have to do is log in or register for free and upload a resume and manually fill in some of the blanks related to the information displayed on the profile.
Why would someone want to delete their Dice profile when they have achieved what the profile was created for? For example, when they have found a job matching their profile and no longer want to be visible to other companies, they wish to delete it. We also delete when we have found nothing interesting that matches our profile.
