Overview
Use the power of our skill highlighter tool to find useful and in-demand skills in any text or file you have and add them to your library. In addition to skills, you can also add highlights as keywords.
To access the skill highlighter tool and start using it, follow the steps listed below:
- On the navigation pane, click Power tools and then click Select under Skill highlighter.
- In the Select a library dialog that appears, select libraries based on which you want to analyze a text or a file and find skills.
The HRForecast skill library, which is a standard skill library, is pre-selected by default. - Once done, click Save.
At lease one library must be selected and saved, so you can proceed to the next step. You can modify the library option at any time at Change library.
Before analyzing the content and finding skills, you can change libraries you want to use as a source for validating the skills. In addition, you can select here a library to which you want to add new skills and keywords. To this end, follow the steps listed below:
- On the Analyze content page, click Change library.
- In the dialog that appears, select one or multiple libraries to use as a source for analyzing and validating the skills.
If you want to delete a previously added library, click a little cross next to its name. - Afterwards, select a library to which to add new skills and keywords.
- Once you are done, click Save.
To add content to analyze, you can either enter your text directly to the Name text box or upload a file by clicking Upload file or dragging it to the box below the Name text box.
If you change your mind and decide to analyze a different text, you can clear the text you have previously added by clicking Clear content and then add a new text.
If you enter the text manually, to start analyzing it, click Analyze. The text of the file you upload is automatically analyzed. The analysis is done based on the libraries defined as a source for analyzing and validating skills.
Once the text is analyzed, you can see highlights in the text itself and the summary of highlights.
The summary of highlights is shown in the left pane:
- All skill. The total number of skills found and verified based on the libraries you have defined as a source for analyzing and validating skills.
- Potential skills. The number of skills found in the text but not yet available in skill libraries.
- Existing skills. The number of skills found in the text and already available in skill libraries.
- Added skills. The number of skills and keywords found in the text and added to a skill library in smartLibrary.
Skills in the texts are highlighted as follows:
- Orange denotes skills found in the text and already available in skill libraries.
- Violet denotes potential skills you can add to your library.
- Green denotes skills you have added to your library.
You can filter skills found in the text by clicking the corresponding highlight option in the left pane. The highlights shown in the text itself change respectively.
By pointing to an orange-highlighted skill in the text, you can view a library, where it is available, as well as the skill name.
Once skills are analyzed based on the libraries you have defined as a source for validating skills, you can see highlights denoting already existing skills, potential skills, and added skills.
To add a potential skill to the library you have previously defined as the one for adding new skills and keywords, follow the steps listed below:
- Point to the violet-highlighted skill in the text, and then click the
icon. - In the Add new skill pane that opens, define or modify the skill details (name, language, taxonomies, etc.).
