Understanding Interest Lists

Interest lists enable employees to maintain a list of the non-person profiles that are of interest. They can also compare the added profile to their own profile to determine degree of a fit. The interest list can include any profile. For example, employees could add profiles for jobs that they want to include in their career planning, or job profiles that are similar to their own profile. Each employee has one interest list that can be modified by the employee, the employee's manager, and the profile administrator:

Employees maintain their own interest list using the self-service options provided in eDevelopment.

The interest list shows who added each profile to the interest list, and employees can remove any profiles that they added. Employees cannot remove profiles added by their manager or the profile administrator.
Managers can view and modify interest lists for their direct reports using the manager self-service options in eDevelopment.

Managers can remove profiles that they added to an interest list only. They cannot remove profiles that are added by the employee or the profile administrator.
Administrators have access to interest lists based on the row-level security permissions associated with their role.

Administrator can remove any profile from an interest list, including those added by the employee and manager.
