Frequently Asked Questions

How does competency gap analysis work?

Employees complete competency assessments (case studies, SJTs, MCQs, or voice interviews). Kaairo scores results against target proficiency levels you define for each role or team. Gaps are highlighted automatically with priority rankings.

What happens after gaps are identified?

For each gap, Kaairo generates a personalised coaching plan with specific activities, recommended practice scenarios, and development goals. Employees can immediately start practising with Kaaira voice roleplay.

Can we set different targets for different roles?

Yes. Target proficiency levels can be set per competency, per role, per team, or per department. Gap analysis adapts to your specific benchmarks.

How do we track gap closure over time?

Run periodic reassessments and Kaairo tracks competency trends over time. Development dashboards show baseline scores, current scores, and target levels for each competency.

Is this useful for leadership development programmes?

Absolutely. Define leadership competencies, assess current leaders, identify development priorities, and provide targeted coaching and practice. Track leadership competency growth across cohorts.

Can we use this for new hire onboarding?

Yes. Assess new hires against role-specific competency targets, generate onboarding coaching plans, and provide practice scenarios to accelerate time-to-productivity.

What assessment types feed into gap analysis?

All four types: Case Studies, Situational Judgement Tests, Multiple Choice Questions, and AI Voice Interviews. Combine types for comprehensive competency measurement.

How does this differ from a skills matrix?

A skills matrix is a static spreadsheet. Kaairo's gap analysis is assessment-driven, AI-generated, and connected to coaching and practice. It measures actual competency levels, not self-reported skills, and creates actionable development plans.
