Nobody sees them. They are never rendered on your public profile, and they are never given to the visitor chat at all. They feed exactly one thing: your Honest Fit Assessment, the tool a hiring manager uses when they paste a job description against your profile.
Detail
The eleven fields, on each role: why you joined, why you left, actual contributions, proudest achievement, would do differently, challenges faced, lessons learned, what your manager would say, what your reports would say, conflicts and tensions, and quantified impact.
The split that matters. Each role has a public half — company, title, title progression, dates, accomplishment bullets — and this private half. The public half is what visitors read and what the chat can discuss. The private half never leaves the assessment path.
Why write them at all. Fit assessments are only as specific as their input. A role with a title and three bullets gives the assessment almost nothing to reason with. "Why you left", "Would do differently" and "Quantified impact" are the highest-leverage three — they carry the judgement and the numbers that a résumé line cannot.
They also gate publishing. At least one role needs two or more private fields filled. One quirk: Conflicts and tensions does not count toward that check, so if you filled it, make sure two other private fields are also filled on that role.
And they carry the score. Experience is the heaviest section at 25 points, and a role with no private context scores nothing regardless of how complete its public half looks.
If writing them feels exposed, the AI Activity page in the sidebar is the reassurance: it shows every question visitors have asked your profile’s AI and every fit assessment run against it, so you can see exactly what your profile is being measured against.
