Working with your Profile

The information in your profile tells other members of the Karma411 community all about you. It also informs searches across the community and allows people to find you. Profiles comprise seven main sections:

1. My Bio: The basics including name and location as well as fun facts such as "My Motto" and "About Me."
2. Skills: This section lets members know about the skills you possess. Good at marketing? How about knitting? Put them down!
3. Interests: What piques your curiosity? Philosophy, the Environment, Jogging? Put them down!
4. Group Membership: Groups you belong to on Karma411. This section will fill in automatically as you join or start groups with other members.
5. Favorite Charities: They're all here. Add your favorite charities to your profile. This ensures that when someone makes a donation on your behalf, she chooses a charity that you support. We provide a search engine to help you find your favorite charities.
6. My Work History: The places you've worked and the job titles you've had.
7. My Education: The schools you've attended and the degrees you've obtained.

All seven sections can be edited independently. This helps you focus on one piece of your profile at a time.

To add some more useful information to your profile, you can rate each of your skills on a scale from 1 to 5. When you're done rating yourself, you can also rate the skills of other Members. (But please, stick to rating the skills of Members you've had direct experience with. Karma411 is a place for good karma not bad!)
