Publication number: 20200193387Abstract: A training, tracking, and placement system determines a competence score for a job seeker with respect to a skill set and matches the job seeker with recruiters and/or employers based on the competence score. Competence scores of job seekers may be compared with thresholds provided by recruiters and/or employers to recommend training activities that may improve job seekers' skills in the skill set. Moreover, the training, tracking, and placement system can compare data associated with job seekers with predetermined criteria provided by recruiters and/or employers. Recruiters and/or employers can define predetermined criteria for various industry sectors, roles, and/or employment opportunities and search for and/or receive matches of job seekers who fulfill the specified criteria.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 26, 2020Publication date: June 18, 2020Inventors: Joshua Ryan Jarrett, Kristen Mary Hamilton, Justin Beals, Anne Hanson

Publication number: 20080229214Abstract: A processing device used to support communications between users of the collaboration system is operative to capture occurrence of at least one event defined in accordance with a project plan. Information regarding each such captured event is stored and an activity report based at least in part upon the stored event information is provided by the processing device to at least one other user of the collaboration system. Report annotations may be associated with the activity report. A controller within the collaboration system is employed to route the activity report (and any associated annotations) to other users of the collaboration system. The recipients of the activity report may submit their own annotations to the controller for association with the activity report. Furthermore, the controller may operate to aggregate the activity report with other activity reports.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2007Publication date: September 18, 2008Applicant: Accenture Global Services GmbHInventors: Mary Hamilton, Beata Korytkowski, Joshua Kahn, Charles Nebolsky

Publication number: 20080228774Abstract: A user terminal may be employed to generate a first message and, substantially simultaneously or thereafter, append a first plurality of metadata values to the first message, which metadata values are based on standardized metadata attributes. Subsequent messages may likewise have a second plurality of metadata values appended thereto, which messages are thereafter associated with the first message when the corresponding plurality of metadata values compare favorably. The comparison processing of metadata used to determine when messages should be associated with one another is preferably carried out using a back-end controller. Additionally, one or more content files may also be associated with such messages, which content files assist users of the system in developing context concerning various messages. In this manner, team-wide context may be more readily established, thereby fostering better understanding between team members and, consequently, more efficient collaboration.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2007Publication date: September 18, 2008Applicant: Accenture Global Services GmbHInventors: Mary Hamilton, Beata Korytkowski, Joshua Kahn, Charles Nebolsky
