The business title is sourced from the employee position table, synchronized with HR job profiles to maintain data consistency. Matching job codes between the job profile and HR job tables ensure the role specialty is correctly populated.

    Upload Resume/LinkedIn Profile

    Employees can quickly populate their skill sets by uploading resumes or LinkedIn profiles directly into their Employee Profile, streamlining skill data entry and ensuring an up-to-date profile.

    Skills

    The skills widget lets employees manage their skill data comprehensively: adding, removing, updating proficiency levels, and adding skills based on role levels. Skills are visualized as “Skill pills” that show proficiency numerically, skill name, validation status by managers, and options to adjust proficiency or delete skills where permitted.

    Skill validation: Manager-approved skills cannot have their proficiency decreased or be deleted, ensuring verified skill integrity.

    The skills widget is organized into three sections sorted by importance:

    • Essential skills: Derived from the employee’s role group and position, showing required skills and recommended learning opportunities to close skill gaps.
    • Additional skills: Skills outside the role level, including those imported from resumes or manually added.
    • Recommended skills: Suggested skills related to the employee’s role and existing profile to encourage further development.
