🪄 Using the Wizard Wand feature for automated Profile updates
If a skill gap has a purple 🪄 accompanying a Gap indicator, then this indicates that you have selected that skill but only at higher level/s, and the Job requires Competency for that skill at lower levels as well. It is a recommendation that you are most likely eligible to select the required lower skill levels as well.
Often people may select only the highest level of a skill they have a competency in. However Jobs/Roles can often require Competency at more than 1 level, OR the job may only require Competency at a lower level. Keep in mind that for SFIA skills it is never assumed that skill levels are progressive. e.g. A skill at Levels 5-7 may have leadership attributes rather than functional ones, and the person may not necessarily have competency at the lower levels.
However we also recognized that skills can be progressive, and that being competent at a higher level, it can often also be assumed the person is Competent at the lower levels as well.
Note: It would be prudent read the skill descriptions at the lower levels to satisfy yourself you are also competent at those levels.
To invoke an automated update of your Profile to include the missing skill/levels:
Click on the Wand
You will then be prompted with a pop-up asking if you wish to update your Profile with the missing lower skill levels for that skill. e.g.
It will automatically put your Profile into Edit mode, and make the necessary updates to the missing Skill levels
You will see the std message block indicating how many pending updates there are e.g.
You then have the std option to Save or Cancel the updates
Save: will Save you profile to a new Profile Version with the changes
Cancel: will abandon the changes
