When checking for Skill Gaps on this Profile page, we suggest that you also check using the Show Detail button. On occasions, if you have no skills elected in a SFIA Category that the job requires, that Category may not display at all in the profile panel, in which case you may miss a skill gap. (This has been raised as an enhancement request)
Note: the Gap will however appear correctly in the Action Plan page.

Indicator | Description/Usage |
|---|---|
None | Indicates a skill/level present in your profile that is not required in the Job profile |
 | A Green Tick indicates a perfect skill/level match This indicates you do have the skill at the Level(s) needed for the role profile as a fully developed professional competency (Competent) |
 | A Red Cross indicates a skill/level gap of a Required skill for the Job This indicates a skill Required by the role profile. However it is not included it in your selected profile type (e.g. Self Assessed) as Competent at the required level. Therefore your development action needs that you move from your current selection (e.g. Not Selected or Knowledge or Proficient) to Competent |
 | An Orange circle indicates a skill/level gap for a Desirable skill for the Job This indicates that you are missing a Desirable skill for that role profile as Competent at the required level Therefore you may choose to have a development action that moves you from your current selection (e.g. Not Selected or Knowledge or Proficient) to Competent in order to improve your competency for the role, or possibly because as a Future role, you wish to improve your chances of selection. |
