Can I add Positions to Quests?

Find People for Projects Quests can have a Position associated with them. If a Find People for Projects Quest specifies a Position, Kalido will automatically suggest all the Skills associated with the Position as required Skills for the Quest. This will make staffing Projects faster and more effective. 

What is an Unofficial Position?

Unofficial Positions are unmanaged. Any user can add them to their Work History. This allows flexibility for people like alumni who had job titles that are no longer in use or recognised by a company.
