How to Manage Job Architecture Skills within the Portal

Last Updated:

Skill management in Beamery is designed to help your team configure ever-evolving role definitions on an ongoing basis. By adding and removing skills related to your core role definitions, as well as configuring required skills and proficiency levels, you are able to proactively maintain your role definitions to be used across your talent ecosystem.

Add Skill to Role

  1. Within the Job Architecture Portal, navigate to a specific role.
  2. On the right-hand side of the role display, click ‘+ Add Skill’.
  3. In the pop-up window, enter a skill you would like to add to the role. Select the skill closest to your entry criteria. Beamery will attempt to direct your input criteria to the closest skill title, accounting for versions (Python 3.0.1 vs Python), language differences (Data Modelling vs Data Modeling) and abbreviations (E2E Marketing vs End to End Marketing).
  4. Select the desired Proficiency level (if applicable), as well as if the skill should be marked as ‘Required’.
  5. If more than one skill addition is required, click ‘Submit and add another’.
  6. If only adding one skill, or when on the last of multiple, click ‘Submit’. You will see that the skills selected have been added to the role, with the source detailed as ‘Added Manually’ when clicking on the skill title.
