Individual and team development reports

Competency matrices and career track planning

Built-in library of goals and skill development courses

Assessment history and progress for each employee

Possibility of integration with LMS and external learning platforms

 

Work stages

Analytics

Interviews were held with HR specialists from different industries. Pain points were identified: lack of development visualization, difficulty in tracking progress, low employee engagement in self-assessment. Real cases of staff assessment in teams of 20-100 people were studied.

 

Design

The interface is focused on simplicity and interactivity. Visual dashboards, development charts and a “competency profile” for each employee and team were implemented.

 

Development and testing

The application is built on React + NestJS. Support for imports from Excel and HRM systems was added. Testing was carried out in a closed group of companies (accounting, IT company, manufacturing).

 

Results

87% of employees completed the initial self-assessment within the first week of implementation

The HR department reduced the time for preparing staff reports from 3 days to a few hours

Managers noted improved quality of feedback and higher employee engagement

4 companies adopted SkillRate as their main HR assessment tool

 

Client feedback

“SkillRate allowed us to structure the employee assessment process and simplified communication between management and the team. Everything is clear, simple and works without unnecessary bureaucracy.”
