How to Delete or Update a Candidate’s Profile Image

Summary

 If you have the necessary permissions to access a job and the Hire Pipeline, as well as the permission to edit candidates, you can update or delete a candidate’s profile image. This can be done directly from the candidate's profile in the Hire Pipeline. If you wish to update the image, you can re-upload a new one, and if you want to remove it, simply click the delete icon. Once updated, the new profile image will be visible across the platform wherever the candidate’s profile is accessed.
