How is my Career Rating calculated?
|
Our calucation system is highly complex and was created by industry-leading mathematicians.
In everyday terms, in order for your rating to be calculated, you need to send the Rating Request to at least 3 to 5 colleagues. Once results from these emails are received in your Career Rating Vault, their answers will be validated, averaged and weighted based on your relationship with colleagues, their own rating and large number of other factors.
We also find patterns to assure that your friends or problematic coworker does not distort your overall picture.

How does Career Rating ensure confidentiality of the rating process?
|
|

|
|
Why is my Career Rating showing N/A?
|
|
Your Career Rating is showing N/A because you have not had at least 3-5 people evaluate you.
|
|
My coworker rated me, but my rating did not change. Why?
|
|
Our results system is based on group ratings, not individual ratings. Your result will not change because of one new rating. That is our way of ensuring confidentiality of the person who rated you.
|
|
Would potential employers be able to search for my profile?
|
|
Employers can subscribe to a service, which will allow them to search through an anonymous database of candidates. Employers will never see your name during the search. They will simply be able to contact you through our website. It will be your choice to reply or not reply to these inquiries.
|
|
So once I have a rating or a few, what do I do with them?
|
You can do numerous things with your Career Ratings to ensure that you get the maximum leverage from them.
For example:
You can add a link to your rating to your resume. Potential employers can click on this link to go to CareerRating.com and see all the results of your rating.
You can use your ratings to evaluate and improve your own performance. See where your colleagues have rated you lower and what you can work on. We’ll even organize your ratings into charts and graphs, in order to help you track your progress.
