M&Ps: Be Sure to Update your Talent Profile

November 6, 2014

Yale is trying to promote career advancement by filling more Managerial and Professional open positions from inside the University. Human Resources uses the Talent Profile information to find qualified internal candidates. To make sure that they have your most up-to-date information, be sure to keep your Talent Profile updated. See below for Mike Peel’s email.

SUBJECT:

  Background Profiles of Yale Managers and Professionals

Dear Colleague:

One of Yale’s organizational goals is to build the capacity to fill most manager and professional promotional job openings from inside the University.  In the past several years, we have achieved an approximately 50% internal placement rate (which is substantially above historic levels), but we aspire to reach the two-thirds level.  The realization of this goal requires even greater knowledge about the backgrounds and skills of internal candidates.

This is where you can help.  To make sure your personal background information (education, Yale positions, and pre-Yale career experience) is complete and accurate, please visit our talent profile website by November 20.  If your information has not been previously inputted, it would be greatly appreciated if you might take a few minutes to add it.  If updating is needed, please make any additions or corrections.  To access the system, visit Staffing & Career Development and select “Edit your profile.”

Thank you in advance for helping to further refine our internal staffing and career development data base!

Best regards,

Mike
