Career Path

SkyHive’s Career Path API lets you manage employee skills and can assist with upskilling and reskilling employees. With this API, you can:

• Discover jobs requiring similar skills
• Retrieve skills for a job title
• Compare skill sets to identify skill matches and gaps

You can compare and search for existing skills using these methods:

• Use compareSkills to compare a given skill set against a desired skill set.
• Use getSkillsByTitle to search for skills by title.
• Use getSimilarTitles to search for related job titles.

Compare Skills

The compareSkills method compares two arrays of skills:

1. The “from” array holds skills currently associated with an employee, job, or course.
2. The “to” array holds the skills of a desired title or job.

The compareSkills method returns an array of matching skills, an array of skills that are present in the “to” array but missing in the “from” array, and a score that indicates the quality of the match.

The following use case covers a possible application of the Career Path API:
