It helps to compare skills with vacancies, work tasks and development of employees.
Comparing skills when searching for candidates
Eightfold AI offers organizations tools for recruiting and developing employees. Talent Acquisition focuses on matching skills and profiles with job objectives. This gives a reason to look at the experience of a person whose previous position was called differently. The meaningful relationship between experience and requirements is confirmed by a specialist.
For internal tasks, Eightfold describes Talent Management. This product helps to work with employee skills, career opportunities and project assignments. The implementation for selection and internal mobility has different data and participants.
Training test on fictional profiles
Take a job that requires purchasing supplies and working with suppliers. Prepare several fictional profiles: with a direct match, with another name for a similar experience and with a data gap. Check the proposed coincidences with specific responsibilities. The synonym of the right skill should be checked by the job description.
Consider separately those with incomplete data. This case is useful to put on the list for clarification. Deciding on the suitability of a candidate requires a broader context than coincidence on one basis.
Connection to the organization
Eightfold offers demonstration and corporate implementation. Before connecting, determine what data will be available, how it is updated and who is responsible for correcting errors. To check the work of the tool, you need a set of cases specific to a particular vacancy, with a clear order of manually considering controversial matches.
