Seniority Levels

JSON-LD schema defining the Beamery seniority levels model structure using SKOS vocabulary

The seniority levels model uses JSON-LD with SKOS (Simple Knowledge Organization System) vocabulary to provide a hierarchical representation of professional seniority levels and their relationships within organizational structures.

Overview

The Beamery seniority levels model is designed to capture comprehensive information about professional hierarchy levels, including their relationships and groupings. This model supports organizational talent management with structured career progression understanding.

Core Schema

The seniority levels model is based on the following JSON-LD structure with SKOS vocabulary:
