Job levels

Groups: Within groups you can classify the job profiles based on seniority. The default groups are from Entry-level to Director.
Levels: Next to groups you have the option to add levels to the groups. With the levels you have the option to put a junior and senior role within the samen group.
Job families
Within the job families you have the option to put all job profiles working in the same department in one job family. E.g. the following profiles can all be placed within the job family of sales and business development:
Inside sales
Business development representative
Account executive
Sales manager
Sales director

When you want to assign these profiles to the correct job family and job group, you can do so by clicking the 'Edit' button in the job matrix.
💡 If you have selected a job family and job level when creating a job profile, this profile is automatically placed in the job matrix.
