Resource Profiles in Resource Management
Note: After the initial Resource Management Go-Live, you must complete the update to your profile by April 5, 2002. While all the information in the profile is important, focus on completing the following information, on the General Info tab, by the deadline:
Only deployable resources and project managers may use the myProfile link. "my Profile" contains information for a deployable resource needed to calculate a "Fit Score" to match the deployable resource to open assignments. Remember that the information you enter or change in your my Profile can affect your Fit Score. Click on the section about which you want more information:
How to get to My Profile

You should enter your work objective on this tab in the Objective section.
The Areas of Specialty are areas in which you have particular expertise. They are not the exact same information as you entered for your Competencies, but are more of an overall categorization of your skills. To add to the area:
Click on the plus sign (+) inside the yellow folder next to CORP - PeopleSoft Corporation to open the tree.
Click on the plus sign inside the yellow folder next to PGS - PeopleSoft Global Services.
From this point you can choose a whole area of specialty by clicking on the link for the specialty or you can further refine your specialty by clicking on the plus sign next to the specialty. A "star" (
) indicates a specific skill that you can choose by clicking on its link.
Add more skills by clicking on the Add button.
When you are done specifying all your skills, click the Save to save your changes.
Your overview tab is complete.

You may type in a Customer Name if it is not on the Lookup list.
Once you've entered the information, click the Save button.
Your work experience information is entered as you have specified.

Note: Because Resource Management shows only approved competencies, updates to your competencies will not show up in Resource Management until they are approved by your manager. For more information, see Eureka! document 15258 — Competency changes don't show up right away in Resource Management.
The information on the qualifications tab is the information you entered in Competency Management. To update any of the information, click on the Update link in that section. You will be taken to the Competency Management application to make your changes.

The only information you can enter on this page at this time is the number of maximum travel distance (in miles) from your home that you wish to travel. Resource Specialists will look at this information when considering a deployable resource for a customer engagement.

Here is more information about the sections on this tab:
Address: For privacy purposes, the information in this section is limited to the City, State, and ZIP code of the deployable resource. The information comes from the HR system. The email address cannot be updated.
Note: International users may need to leave out dashes or slashes in the phone number to make it fit into the fields provided.
Job Information: This is your current job title and location. This information cannot be changed in Resource Management.
Passports & Visas: This information cannot be entered at this time.
Weekly Work Days: This information defaults to the standard for the country in which your department resides.
NOTE: This is VERY important information needed for reporting purposes. Be SURE to enter this information!
Industries: Here is where you can specify any industry(ies) you have particular experience in.
PeopleSoft Releases: Here is where you can specify your experience with particular PeopleSoft releases, for example, 6, 7.5 or 8. It includes some specific Vantive releases as well.
Primary Resume: Here is where you would attach your primary resume. For more information about resumes in Resource Management, see Eureka! document 15246 — Resumes in Resource Management.

Note: Customer Managers can see this tab only - they cannot see the other tabs. Deployable resources and Global Services Managers can see all tabs.
The Resource Profile tab contains a summary of the information entered on the other tabs. The information cannot be edited on this tab.
Sections where there is no information for the deployable resource will not appear. For example, if the deployable resource has not yet uploaded his or her primary resume, the Resume Attachment section will not appear on this page.
Note: Deployable resources and Global Services Managers may see just a small blue line under the Resume Attachments section on this tab. They can view the resume by clicking back to the General Info tab.
