The Talent Dashboard in ActionAtlas provides a comprehensive view of all human resources available on the platform. This central hub organizes resources into two main categories: Freelancers and Team Members.
Understanding Talent in ActionAtlas
In ActionAtlas, "Talent" refers to any Freelancer or licensed user on the platform. The system organizes these resources into two distinct categories to simplify management and resource allocation:
Freelancers
External contractors who work with your organization on a project basis:
- 1099 or non-W2 contractors
- Typically brought onboard for specific projects
- May have specialized skills or expertise
Licensed Users
Company employees with licensed access to ActionAtlas:
- Administrators
- Operations personnel
- Project Managers
- Team Members
Note: On the Talent Dashboard's Team Members tab, all licensed user types (Admin, Operations, Project Manager, Team Member) are merged into a single category called "Team Members" for simplified management.
Freelancers Tab
The Freelancers tab displays all freelancers who have been added to your ActionAtlas instance. This comprehensive view allows you to quickly assess your freelancer pool and find the right talent for your projects.
Data Points Displayed
For each freelancer, the dashboard shows:
- Name - Freelancer's full name
- Availability - Current status (Available, Busy, etc.)
- Skillset - Areas of expertise
- Email - Contact information
- Hourly Rate - Cost per hour
- Half-Day Rate - Cost for 4-hour blocks
- Day Rate - Cost for full 8-hour days
- Location - City and State/Province
Team Members Tab
The Team Members tab shows all licensed users in your organization regardless of their specific role or permission level. This provides a unified view of your internal talent resources.
Data Points Displayed
For each team member, the dashboard shows the same data points as the Freelancers tab:
- Name - Team member's full name
- Availability - Current status
- Skillset - Areas of expertise
- Email - Contact information
- Hourly Rate - Internal billing rate per hour
- Half-Day Rate - Internal billing rate for 4-hour blocks
- Day Rate - Internal billing rate for full 8-hour days
- Location - City and State/Province
Understanding Rates & Skillsets Display
Note: By default, the rate and skillset which appears on the Talent tables is the first skillset and rates set by the Administrator for Team Members or set by the Freelancers themselves. When sorting or filtering the data, the appropriate skillset and rates do populate according to the selected skillset.
This means that when you initially view the Talent Dashboard, you'll see each person's primary skillset and its associated rates. However, if you filter or sort by a different skillset, the system will automatically show the rates specific to that skillset for each person.
Using the Talent Dashboard
The Talent Dashboard provides several key functions:
- Searching - Find talent by name, skillset, location, or availability
- Filtering - Narrow results by specific criteria
- Sorting - Order results by any column (name, rate, location, etc.)
- Viewing Details - Click on any talent to see their complete profile
- Adding to Projects - Select talent to add to your project team
