Update Personal Details

You can keep your profile information up to date to ensure that employers and the HackerRank Community have the latest details. Your profile remains private by default unless you choose to make it public. Updating your name, phone number, and location helps you maintain a professional presence.

   3. In the Who can see this information? drop-down, choose one of the following visibility options:

      • Only Me: Keeps your information private.

      • Everyone: Makes your profile publicly visible to others.

      Note: If you make your profile publicly visible, other users may see a 404 error when they try to open it.

      This occurs when your account has no visible activity, such as:

      • No completed challenges

      • No earned badges

      • No public certifications

      Your profile becomes publicly accessible once you complete at least one challenge or earn a badge.
