Skill Overview

As a company, you want a precise and consistent overview of your employees' skills. A detailed skill list enhances external representation, reporting, and the quality of generated résumés (CVs). However, maintaining a comprehensive skill catalog can be time-consuming, and individual user skills, freely entered by users in decídalo, can make standardization difficult. With the Skills Page and the support of AI, you create a standardized structure that ensures all relevant information is present in the system while enabling a professional and efficient presentation of your employees' skills, both internally and externally.

Access to this page is controlled by two permissions. With View skills, certificates and roles you can open the page and browse, search and filter the full skill catalog, but the options to create, edit, categorize, merge and delete skills (and the AI cleanup suggestions) are not available. Everything described below as managing or editing additionally requires Manage skills, certificates and roles, and the screenshots show the view of a user with both permissions.

How does the Skills Page work?

The page displays all skills currently stored in the system. You can view, manage, and refine your skills locally. The key benefits:

  • Quality Assurance: Define skill wording, avoid duplicates, and eliminate spelling errors. When a user adds a new skill to their profile, it automatically appears in your skill list. AI suggests a category, a translation, and a description. Edit skills as needed to ensure consistency within the system.
  • Structured Overview: A predefined categorization makes the overall scope of skills more manageable.
  • Define Core Skills: Skills from the list can be selected as Core Skills. The administrator determines which of these key competencies are most relevant in the system and assigns them to a specific category. Start by defining your Core Skills, then filter the skill list accordingly.
