Skills and competencies mapped to a job role are job-specific. This mapping allows these attributes to populate the attribute sections in the Career Worksheet without having to add them manually. The system will determine which attributes should be pulled into the forms according to which job-specific ones are mapped to the employee's Job Role.
In an instance with Job Profile Builder (JPB) enabled, skills and competencies are mapped in Manage Job Profile Content.
Mapping skills and competencies are similar, however, there are some differences to consider:
- Behaviors cannot be mapped to skills, only competencies.
- Skills use proficiency levels from the Proficiency Rating Scale set in Manage Talent Intelligence Hub to determine expected ratings.
- Weights cannot be configured for skills.
Attributes (Competencies and Skills) can be searched by typing the name or using the Tags. When selecting multiple tags, the results will be filtered to show only those competencies or skills that have all the tags assigned.
When mapping competencies, a weight and an expected rating can be set which would determine how important each competency is to the role vs the other competencies mapped to the role, as well as which should be the ideal rating that shows the ability required for the Job Role. Expected ratings can be displayed in Performance and 360 Reviews forms, and they play a key role on the Career Worksheet when evaluating the role readiness. Weights are not typically used in competencies.
