Help define OuiShare Talent taxonomy!
Hey all,
After quite a lot of discussions (see previous thread) we've decided to move forward with the current OuiShare Talent website instead of developing the profile functions on the OuiShare website any further.
Here are the next steps:
- Finalize the taxonomy (the categories of skills, sectors etc. that can be selected). This is important so people will easily find what they're looking for from the site. The current taxonomy was created in a small group during the last Summit, and it can be seen here. If you have comments on what should be added there, please post them below before Friday July 15th. Based on the comments I, Francesca, Marguerite and Ana will come up with a final proposal and post it here.
- After the taxonomy is finalized, we invite all OuiShare members to create a profile to the site.
- When we have enough profiles on the site, we'll add a link to the site from OuiShare's main site and promote it through OuiShare's channels.

@maud1 an excellent suggestion! So let's have a deadline: if you wish to contribute to the taxonomy, please add your comments here by Friday next week (15th of July. After that we'll move forward with the site setup.

@juhomakkonen we are supposed to add suggestions in the comments here, and not just add them directly in the spreadsheet, correct?

Great work @juhomakkonen !
On my side I have the impression that we are missing an "domain of activity" field, for example in my case, I'm developing a specific expertise in the food system transformation, with a transversal approach, and I guess other people have more specific expertise in other sectors of activities, like tourism, or finance or...
What do you think?
I don't know if it should be in areas of expertise or another paragraph...
That's my contribution :-)

@myriamboure thanks for the comment! I'd say that was the goal with the "areas of expertise" dimension, but do you think it's a different thing?

@francesca yep!
Myriam Bouré Sun 10 Jul 2016 2:16PM
@juhomakkonen I guess we can add those in the areas of expertise list, but then can we do it dynamically, if we feel the area we work in is missing, can we add it? Like in my case I would love to add something like "food system transformation"

Wow! Great project!
I added target:"Students" as it might be a good place for people to find internships or small thesis projects.., and "Mobility" in area of expertise.

Hey guys,
great project. Congrats to all the ones involved. I would add "material speciallist" and I have a suggestion: Design is a very broad field (graphic, web, product, experience, light, etc) so I would maybe create a sub category or specify which kind of design we are talking about. :smiley:

What is supposed to be the difference between "individuals" and "general public"? I find it a little odd having these two categories.

thanks @juhomakkonen for this update; maybe a deadline could be useful for the work on taxonomy ? :-)
