No, it is not possible to edit a Company Profile in more than one language. We're happy to hear your feedback on this matter. In the future we will continue to improve all features to boost the value for our members.
The information and statistics shown are based on the XING profiles of members who have entered this company name as their current employer. The assignment of members to companies is based on the "Display this job next to my name and at the top of my profile page" setting on individual member profiles. Company information can be edited, and additional content added, if the company purchases usage rights to do so. Depending on the scope of features selected, the editor authorized by the company can add company updates, and upload a logo and banner.
XING summarizes profiles with different spellings of the same company and compares them to public data on the company when creating Company Profiles. If you cannot find a company using the given spelling, try searching for a less specific term, such as "XING" instead of "XING AG".
The following information will be searched: Company name, location, tags (with STANDARD and PLUS profiles), company description, and the tags entered in the "Employees of this company have" box.
For more information, have a look at the "Search tips" on the XING Company Profiles homepage.
Changes to company profiles can be made by making changes to individual member profiles. XING members who work for this company are automatically identified by the system when they enter this company name as their current employer. The important thing here is which position you display alongside your name at the top of your profile (the respective box must be checked here under “Professional experience”).
To make things simpler we have also introduced the “I work at this company” button. Simply click on the company profile you which to be affiliated with. Then click on the “I work at this company button” and the name of the respective company will be transferred to your profile. You will then be listed as a company employee on the company profile some 24 hours after saving your changes. Please note: Freelancers are not counted as employees here.
Tip: If you have not been identified as a current employee of the right company, please check whether you are using the correct company name and legal abbreviation (e.g. AG, GmbH, GbR) in your profile.
The way a company’s name is written in member profiles is chosen by members themselves, and can differ considerably from the way it is written in a Company Profile. XING summarizes profiles with different spellings of the same company and compares them to public data on the company when creating Company Profiles. Members can change the spelling of the company where they work, either manually in their own profile, or by clicking on the “I work at this company” button.
If your Company Profile lists a person who does not work at your company, please send an email to: companyprofiles@xing.com
The 'Employee network' information box contains statistics showing the companies with the most links to the company you're viewing. As with any other statistics, this information box will only be displayed if the company has at least five employees.
If you click on the company name, you will be taken directly to the Company Profile. The number at the end of the line indicates how many employees are linked to the company you're viewing.
Your privacy settings apply here as well, so if your contact list is not visible to all members your data will not be included in the statistics.
Companies can integrate news directly into their profile. XING members can then subscribe to these updates, and keep up on news in the company. If you follow a company, this will appear in your direct contacts' "What's new in your network" feed. As soon as an update is posted, it will appear on your homepage.
To subscribe to company updates, just go to the Company Profile and click on the button "Follow this company". To unsubscribe, just click on the "Stop following this company".
If you encounter technical problems using the Company Profiles or would like to make a suggestion for improving this feature, you can share this with us here.
