Different sources of a skill

  • Last updated:

Multiple options are available to integrate a skill into a skill framework.

The source of a skill is given by the way a skill has been added to your platform.

What are the different sources?

The 5 main sources that are tracked within the platform are:

  • Employee: all skills that have been declared by an employee;
  • HR admin: all skills that have been created by an HR admin;
  • Imported: all skills that have been imported onto the plateforme upon a customer request. When a skill is imported, the source can take any name that a customer wants. It allows keeping track of a specific reason why the skill has been added;
  • Extracted from your opportunities: all the skills that have been created following their identification by 365Talents among the opportunities on the platform;
  • Related skill: all the skills that have been created by 365Talents because it was relevant or necessary to the reference system, following the identification of the presence of a similar skill (synonym and/or translation attached to a skill group).

Where are the sources of the skills displayed?

It is possible to see all the sources in the skill referential page (link to be added).

The distribution between the different sources can be seen by clicking on "How it is composed?"

You can also see all the sources in detail on the right side of the skill. In the example below some skills have been imported with 2 different sources named "Initial Source" and "Admin RH".

The platform also offers the possibility to filter by the type of source.

 

A skill group source is defined from all the versions' sources composing it, following a precedence rule with priority:

  • If at least one version has an Imported source → the group source is Imported
  • otherwise, if one version has an HR Admin source → the group source is HR Admin
  • otherwise, if one version has an Employee source → the group source is Employee
  • otherwise, if one version has an Extracted from opportunities source → the group source is Extracted from opportunities
  • otherwise the source is Related skill
