Most organizations know they have talent — but very few know where that talent is, how it’s distributed, and what strengths or hidden capabilities their people already have.

TalentPass makes this easier than ever, and you can use it inside your organization entirely for free.

You don’t need a partnership.
You don’t need Passport Pages (though they’ll make this even better when they arrive).
You don’t need to integrate anything or run a complex HR system.

All you need is your team — and a shared understanding of the value of documenting real skills, experiences, and evidence.

Here’s how to turn TalentPass into a reliable, dynamic skills inventory for your team.

---

Step 1: Ask Your Team to Create a TalentPass Profile

Every employee creates their own TalentPass profile:

• They add their past roles
• List their activities
• Upload any credentials
• Add experiences from previous jobs
• Attach evidence (photos, documents, training records)
• Complete the “Build My Profile” conversation with Pythia

TalentPass helps them surface the skills and patterns they’ve developed — many of which never appear on a traditional resume.

You don’t need to analyze anything yet.
First, just help your people build their profiles.

Step 2: Encourage Employees to Add Evidence

Evidence brings your team’s talent into focus.

Employees can add:

• training certificates
• internal learning programs
• degrees or transcripts
• past projects
• photos of work they’ve done
• awards, recognitions, and letters
• customer praise
• screenshots of dashboards or tools
• links to portfolios or demos

The more evidence they attach, the more accurately Pythia can help surface skills.

This makes the skills inventory far richer than anything manually built in a spreadsheet.

Step 3: Ask Team Members to Share Their TalentPass Link

Once they’ve built their profile, ask them to:

• share their TalentPass profile link with you
• OR scan your manager QR code (if set up)
• OR simply email you the link directly

Because the link is view-only, their data remains their data.
They control what’s shown, and nothing is editable by the organization.

This is one of the simplest and safest ways to build trust.

Step 4: Review the Skills, Evidence, and Stories

Instead of just seeing job titles or resumes, you’ll see:

• Technical skills
• Human skills
• Motivations and interests
• Project-level accomplishments
• Certifications (even PDFs or photos)
• Work samples
• Story-based insights
• Emerging patterns

This gives you a far deeper picture of your team’s real capacity.

You may discover:

• someone on your staff already has the certification you need
• a person in one department has skills relevant to another
• hidden leadership potential
• project experience that wasn’t on a résumé
• strong interpersonal strengths or customer-facing capabilities
• people with interest in stretch assignments

Most organizations have far more skill inside their teams than anyone has visibility into.
TalentPass reveals it.

Step 5: Identify Opportunities, Gaps, and Potential

Once you see everyone’s real skills, you can:

• place people in roles they’re better suited for
• plan smarter staffing for upcoming projects
• identify who’s ready for advancement
• understand who needs training — and in what
• match people to mentors
• distribute work across cross-functional skills
• uncover high-potential future leaders
• see interests and motivations more clearly
• support internal mobility more fairly

This is how you begin building a living skills map of your entire team — for free.

Step 6: Keep the Inventory Updated Over Time

As employees:

• complete new training
• gain new experiences
• earn new certifications
• build new skills
• add new evidence
• discover new interests

They simply update their TalentPass profiles.

This means your skills map stays alive, not frozen in a spreadsheet or a static HR system.

And when Passport Pages become available, organizations will be able to:

• request verification
• attach skills to internal roles
• connect training pathways
• recognize development
• standardize credential reviews

Everything your team builds today will carry forward.
