Companies

Job Boards

Inda can help you improve the recruitment of new candidates and the writing of vacancies by providing accurate mapping between skills and job titles in CVs and ESCO standardisation. ESCO (European Skills, Competences, Qualifications and Occupations) is the multilingual European classification of skills and occupations. ESCO contains the identification and description of 2942 occupations and 13.485 interlinked skills.

The ESCO mapping provided by Inda allows for a better interpretation of candidates ‘ work experience and acquired competences as well as for a better writing of job advertisements to make them easily searchable by the right audience.

SELECTION OF CANDIDATES

Collection of information by self-completion of the application form

The CV is parsed and the information extracted is used to fill in the application form. This is validated by the candidate and the data obtained are then saved in the INDA database.

WRITING ADVERTISEMENTS

Writing the job advertisement

When opening a new job position, the recruiter writes a job description to attract the most qualified candidates in line with the offer.

Screening of candidates' CV's

The recruiter looks at the candidates’ profiles and starts the CV screening

Investigating the job

During the writing process, the recruiter uses the ESCO service to get more information about the job position he is looking for. This will provide them with an insight into the job and a list and description of the skills needed to perform it.

Candidate profile detail

For each profile, it is possible to view the work experience and skills acquired by the candidate in the CV.

Suggestion of tasks on the basis of competences

In addition, the ESCO service can also be used to identify and obtain a list of occupations within which a competence is present.

Detail on the job titles

The recruiter can further investigate the candidate’s work experience by comparing it with the equivalent ESCO. As a result, he/she can view the job description and its necessary competences.

For each job, the mapping provides the sectors in which that job exists, the main working departments of the company and a taxonomy of jobs that includes the one under consideration.

Widening the search for candidates based on identified competences

Inda, through the ESCO service, can also take into consideration candidates who work (or have worked) in professions other than the one advertised but who have the required skills.

In this way, candidates are not excluded on the basis of their professional title, but rather selected on the basis of their skills.

Further developing skills

The recruiter can also further develop the candidate’s acquired skills by comparing them with the ESCO competences. Consequently, he/she can also view the description of the skills and the tasks in which they are needed.

The mapping also provides a detailed hierarchy of skill categories

Expansion of selections

The recruiter, thanks to the information provided by the ESCO service, can get a broader view of the job he/she is looking for and the skills needed. In this way he/she can write a more appropriate job description to receive the best applications.

STANDARDISATION OF TASKS

Mapping can also be used to standardise job positions in your company and map them to ESCO standards, ISCO (International Standard Classification of Occupations), ISTAT CP2011 (Italian Classification of Occupations) and O*NET (Occupational Information Network).
More and more often, companies need to have the job positions of their employees organised and standardised for bureaucratic reasons or for business statistical analysis.
The ESCO service provides a job classification, the sectors in which the job is present, the working departments of the company and a taxonomy of jobs that includes the one under consideration. The standardised tasks and additional information can be saved and used for statistical analysis and bureaucratic needs.
