Two types of claimed skills:

1. Skill Badges
Skill Badges are digital representations of skills that we've clearly defined on CareerPrepped. Skill Badges represent skills that are typically considered to be important for career success no matter the type of work you do.

2. Other Skills
There are many more skills beyond the ones that have badges. That’s why CareerPrepped lets you search and add “Other Skills” from a library of over 32,000 skills. This list is updated every two weeks to include new skills that employers are looking for.

How to Ask for Feedback on Your Claimed Skills

Follow these steps to get feedback on your Skill Badges or Other Skills:

  1. Sign in to CareerPrepped.

  2. Click on "Claimed Skills."

  3. Look at the two tabs: "Skill Badges" and "Other Skills."

    • You’ll only see Skill Badges here if you’ve already claimed them. Skill Badges can be claimed inside Skill Builders.

    • To add Other Skills, go to the "Other Skills" tab and click the orange "+ Add Skills" button. Then search for and select skills from the library.

  4. Find a skill you’ve claimed and click the orange "Actions" button next to it.

  5. Choose "Seek Feedback."

    • You must have evidence (like a project or example of your work) linked to the skill to ask for feedback.

  6. Pick who you want to get feedback from:

    • CareerPrepped Industry Mentors

    • CareerPrepped Talent Developers

    • People you know (your own network)

  7. Follow the steps to complete your request.
