How We Can Help
Profile Manager is the gateway to Korn Ferry’s Talent Suite, a living library of Success Profiles that translates decades of science into clear, practical tools for HR and business leaders. It allows you to standardize role definitions, embed skills data into your HR systems, and make better talent decisions at scale.
1
Profile Manager unlocks access to tens of thousands of best-in-class Success Profiles. Each profile provides a comprehensive, configurable definition of what 'great' looks like in a role.
2
Connected to each Success Profile are job descriptions and interview guides that ensure consistency and fairness across hiring processes. Each guide is aligned to the skills and competencies proven to drive success—helping recruiters and hiring managers evaluate candidates with confidence and precision.
3
Make informed talent decisions when it comes to the availability, trainability, and value of critical skills with built-in market data and skills reports. Compare roles side-by-side, identify gaps, and determine where to prioritize internal development and mobility versus sourcing external talent.
4
Success Profiles go beyond technical skills to connect work to human capabilities, personal traits, and drivers. This approach makes them more practical and predictive than traditional skills libraries, helping place the right talent in the right roles and close skills gaps faster.
