Purpose

This article explains the different types of data ingestion used to power skill assessment.

Audience

Skill assessment is geared towards employees, managers, and HRBPs.

JIE data ingestion

Skill assessment depends heavily on data ingestion from Job Intelligence Engine (JIE) and imports skill data from JIE’s role library, including required job skills and benchmark proficiency.

Third-party data ingestion

Apart from JIE, skill data is also ingested through third-party assessment tools. Two types of third-party data ingestion are supported in skill assessment:

• One-time migration
• Ongoing data ingestion

A one-time migration may be performed if a company chooses to permanently switch from their third-party assessment tool to skill assessment. It is recommended for the one-time migration to take place before skill assessment is live and active in the company's Career Hub account. Full editing capabilities are available after the one-time migration.

Ongoing data ingestion names the third-party as the single source of truth. With this type of data ingestion, editing options are removed from skill assessment and ratings are in a view-only capacity.

Ongoing data ingestion is applicable to additional assessment types, such as Peer or Mentor-Assessments. Additional assessments (not Self or Manager-Assessments) are defined by your organization and can only be viewed, not edited, in the skill assessment module.
