Collaborated with our customer to improve user engagement for the Talentsky Enterprise solution. The goal for each user is to reach Mentor status, drive followers and continue to post and share their skills through Achievement posts. Secondly, each Mentor should conduct Workshops to share their knowledge with others. Available with v3.2, we created a Top 20 Mentor and Instructor points system visible to each user on their profile and to the enterprise through the Success App.

I learned a great deal from Prakash in this Workshop including the importance of building a data model in advance the application UX. Prakash also shared the differences between Structured Query Lange (SQL) which enables the creation relationships among data types and NoSQL which is more of a forms based concept. Also, I enjoyed the feedback and dialog from the other attendees Nick, Amber and Ryan.

At Talentsky, we have developed input field requirements including minimum characters requirements for roles or tasks for our language AI, validation checks for social media handles, credit card input validation etc. We want to make sure the UI enforces clean data input and supports the user from making a data mistake.

After years of product development, closed of our first enterprise customer with a focus on leveraging Talentsky Workshops as an innovative internal knowledge sharing capability. With Talentsky, users post Achievements and associated skills and get them rated by relevant internal, or external co-workers or business partners. Users can then share these experiences in one hour live and interactive Workshops, powered by Zoom but beautifully integrated into the Talentsky experience.
