Today's ICT sector is fast growing and very competitive. Prospective employees and specially software engineers are competing hard in ICT companies where there is a variety of roles and positions requiring different skills and competencies. So, there is a vital need for formal processes and criteria for evaluating the adequacy of the candidate's competencies with respect to the job requirements. The aim of this research is to create a competency profiling model for software engineers and specifically to build a hierarchical structure which will capture different aspects of various competencies so as to facilitate ICT companies with a tool that can aid them to reach the optimal decision during recruitment processes and vocational training. First of all, we provide a literature review regarding related models in software engineering. Then, we present a new customizable, three-level model, designed according to the standards of a generic framework developed by the European project ComProFITS. The model is based on two types of competencies, namely \"Professional\" and \"Social\" and is expanded by including the concept of \"Innovative competences\". The model was evaluated in realistic enterprise environments by two ICT companies. Based on interviews of key personnel, the conclusion regarding the degree of detail and adequacy of the model is that the model has potentials for being a useful tool in human resource management in the ICT sector. |
