Job Seeker Digital Card: Share Your CV and Portfolio in One Link
2026-11-04 · TrustyTouch team · 3 min read
When you apply for a job or meet a recruiter, the details that matter are often spread across files and profiles: a CV document, a portfolio site, a LinkedIn profile, and a phone number. A job seeker digital card brings those together in one link. A recruiter can open the page, see what role you are seeking, tap to view your CV, check portfolio links, and find your phone number and email, without searching through several messages or attachments.
What to put on a job seeker card
Start with your name and the kind of role you are seeking, in plain words. Add a link to your CV, hosted where recruiters can open it without a login, and add portfolio links that show work relevant to that role. Add a LinkedIn profile link if you use one, plus a phone number and email address. Keep the description short: a line about your skills and the work you want to do helps a recruiter decide whether to open the CV. Avoid listing every job or course on the card itself. The card is a summary and a doorway to the full CV, not a replacement for it.
Choose portfolio links with care. Two or three strong examples that match the role matter more than a long list of unrelated work. If you are changing fields, include work that shows the skills for the new role, even if it comes from a project, course work, or freelance work. On TrustyTouch, the free plan allows 20 links, which covers a CV, portfolio pieces, and professional profiles. Pro allows 100 links for job seekers who manage many project pages.
How to share the card in a job search
The card link works in several places. You can add it to an email signature, include it in a message to a recruiter after applying, share it at a career event, or add it to a social profile. At an event, showing the QR code lets a recruiter save your details at once, instead of taking a paper CV that may be lost. When you update your CV or portfolio, editing the card once updates every link already shared, so recruiters who saved it earlier see the current version.
- Link a CV that opens without a login.
- Add two or three portfolio examples relevant to the role.
- Write the target role in plain words at the top.
- Keep phone and email easy to find on the page.
Keeping the card professional and current
A job search card should stay current. If your phone number changes, if you finish a new project, or if you change the role you are seeking, update the card before you share it again. Check every link yourself, because a broken CV link can end a conversation before it starts. A message sent through the card inbox gives recruiters another way to reach you, and keeping replies prompt and polite helps a first impression last.
