We want to help you find your perfect job whilst protecting your data and privacy. That's why we have created an "exploding skillsnap". When you want to share your skillsnap by email with a prospective employer, you can now create a unique temporary URL (link) which automatically expires after 2 weeks. Not only that, you can also tag the link with the name of the company you are sending it to and track to see if it has been viewed. After 2 weeks, the link will no longer be accessible. However, anyone with that link can request access by providing details such as their name, email address and the reason why they want to access it. Let us know what you think of the feature. You are always in complete control.
