Hi Product Hunt - Vitor here, maker of The Candid Profile.
I built this because I kept getting the same feedback in hiring conversations:
"Your background is interesting, but I wish I'd understood the *why* behind it sooner."
A resume doesn't have space for that. So I built something that does.
The Candid Profile has three core ideas:
→ The Journey - a career timeline with the real reason behind each move, not just the title and dates.
→ Candid Notes - a space for the parts that never fit a CV: real constraints, honest trade-offs,
what you'd do differently. The things you'd normally only share in a second-round conversation.
→ AMA Layer - an AI chat trained on your own experience. Hiring teams can explore your work
at their own pace, without scheduling another screening call.
