Viewing Competency Profiles of Applicants

Introduction

Considered as one of the key sources of competitive advantage, human capital plays a critical role in an organization. Competency Management is one of the most important tools that help organizations to assess and measure the competence of an individual as well as to identify the key behaviors required for an individual to perform in an excellent manner. This will help them to recognize the right candidates and fit them to the right jobs.

The process steps of the Competency Management functionality in Exact Synergy Enterprise are:

  1. Defining settings — The general or division settings need to be defined before this application can be used properly. For more information, see Defining HRM General Settings or Creating and Modifying Divisions.
  2. Creating field types — Field types are settings of the ratings used to measure the competences, performances, or targets of applicants or employees. For more information, see Creating and Modifying Field Types for Competences, Attributes, and Targets of People.
  3. Creating competences — Competences are skills or key behaviors that are required to perform the jobs. Competences can be created before or after the competency groups are created. For more information, see Creating and Modifying Competences.
  4. Creating competency groups — Competency groups are set up to group specific competences required for different people. Competency groups can be created before the competences are created. For more information, see Creating and Modifying Competency Groups.
  5. Generating competency profiles — After competency groups have been set up, the competency profile will be generated to be linked to a specific applicant(s) or employee(s). A competency profile consists of a set of competences used to assess the applicant or employee. For more information, see Generating Competency Profiles.
  6. Generating competency requests – Once competency profiles have been generated, competency requests can then be generated to notify reviewers to perform the required reviews. For more information, see Generating Competency Requests.
  7. Viewing and reviewing competency profiles — Once competency profiles have been generated, the profiles can seen by the reviewers via the respective applicant or personal cards.

At this screen, you can view the profile generated for the respective applicant. This function is available only if you have set the competency method to Advanced in the HRM general settings. For more information, see Defining HRM General Settings.
