# Update your Profile

{% hint style="success" %}
Your profile represents the manner in which you showcase your skills to teams and clients on Folio. A comprehensive and precise profile expedites the matching process and enhances your likelihood of receiving an invitation to an interview.
{% endhint %}

If you're trying to apply to a job and the Apply button is inactive, don't worry, it's an easy fix! You must have a complete profile before you can apply to jobs on Folio. This ensures employers are getting the full picture of who you are and what you're capable of.

Head to your profile from the sidebar. You will see a red banner at the top of your profile page with an incomplete status like below, outlining what sections are missing:

Within your profile, look for a red exclamation point next to the section that needs some work. Sections that may be missing could include:

| Resume     | Upload your resume                                                                                                               |
| ---------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| About      | Write a brief intro about yourself: who are you and what are your professional aspirations                                       |
| Education  | Add your schooling: areas of study and graduation dates                                                                          |
| Links      | Add your LinkedIn as a baseline, and any skill-specific places you showcase your work (GitHub, a portfolio, a project you built) |
| Skills     | What skills are you comfortable using in a job?                                                                                  |
| Industries | What industries are you interested in?                                                                                           |

After adding these sections into your profile, your profile photo will update to show a green "Available" banner, which indicates that you are ready to apply to opportunities! Head to the Jobs tab on the sidebar to find opportunities that match your interests.
