Purpose

This article explains the purpose of the People page in Career Hub, its key search and filter options, and how it can be used to add favorites and find a mentor.

Audience

The People page is for all users with Career Hub and the People feature enabled in their Eightfold environment.

Overview

You can use the People page to find prospective connections within the company, such as potential mentors or candidates for a project team or an open position.

To access the People page, in the navigation menu bar at the top of the page, select People.

Adding favorites

You can mark employees listed on the People page as favorites.

To see a list of all the employees you have marked as favorite, go to the My Experts page.

To reach out to an employee, click just below their name. This opens a drop-down with a list of contact options.

To learn more about an employee, click on their card in the list. This opens their Career Hub profile.

Searching for people

By default, the People page provides a complete list of active employees that have consented to terms and conditions.

• You can use a keyword search to find people in the complete list.
• You can also use filters to select employees with specific characteristics.

Using a keyword search

1. Start typing a keyword in the Search box. A drop-down offers suggestions as you type.
2. You can choose one of the suggested keywords. In this case, the search results are refreshed automatically.
3. Alternatively, type your own keyword and click .
4. Optionally, you can enter a location or select one from the Location drop-down.

Using a filtered search

1. Click Show Filters below the search box, on the right of the page.
2. Click one of the categories: Skills, Title, Work Experience, Mentoring.
3. Select the necessary filters. The list of the employees on the page is reloaded automatically when a new filter is selected.
4. Optionally, click another category to select more filters.

You can now use a keyword search to look for people in the filtered list.

To clear selected filters, click Reset on the right.

Finding a mentor

Anyone can be a mentor or a mentee, or both at the same time.

The Mentoring tab offers filters to find potential mentor matches based on your current position and career and skill goals.

To find a potential mentor:

1. Click Show Filters below the search box, on the right of the page.
2. Click Mentoring.
3. Select the Open to mentoring filter.

The People page displays mentor recommendations based on seniority level and skills.

If you haven't saved any goals, Eightfold uses your current title and similar titles to identify appropriate future roles and potential mentors for you.

You can search for people in the filtered list by typing keywords in the Search box or selecting a Location.
