  3. We never model a number we don’t have.Where there isn’t enough data, the page says so.

What the check covers

Ten skills for each role

Each skill comes from RIVET’s skills map of the revenue roles. The targets are RIVET’s proposal for the entry and experienced bands, not measured norms. Language and resilience are left out: a short check cannot judge them fairly.

The five levels you rate yourself on

L1 AwareI know what it is and can explain it, but I haven’t done it on real accounts.
L2 FoundationI do it on standard cases, with a template, a checklist or my manager’s review.
L3 PractitionerI do it on my own book, on my own, with consistent results.
L4 AdvancedI handle the hard or unusual cases, and I help others do it.
L5 Expert / ArchitectI designed the way my team does it, and others follow my standard.

How your result is worked out

Plain rules, stated up front

  • Your self-rating sets your level. The scenario questions are being piloted with SDRs, AEs and RevOps people, so they do not change your result yet. The result says “Self-rating, not checked”.
  • Every skill weighs the same. A gap is the target for your band minus your level. We do not have local demand data to weight one skill above another yet.
  • A course only if one fits. A RIVET course is shown only when it teaches that skill as a main subject, reaches your target level, is meant for your role and is open now. At most two, and every one is labelled as RIVET’s own.
  • A micro course for a gap. Where one of RIVET’s AI-Powered Skills micro courses covers one of your top gaps, the result names it beside the course cards, never in their place: on demand, about two hours, AED 240 a skill.
  • A framework for a gap. Where one of RIVET’s Frameworks micro courses has a top gap as its main subject, the result names it there too: on demand, under an hour, AED 190 a framework.
  • No course? We say so. Where RIVET has no course for a skill, you see a free starting point, and you can ask to hear when a course exists.
  • Your answers stay in your browser. Nothing you rate or answer is stored or sent. Your answers are used only to suggest courses that fit your gaps. Only if you ask us to email you do we receive your name, email and role, your LinkedIn link and company if you give them, with the courses your result showed and whether one of them fits you if you ask for the plan, and any skill you ask to hear about. Privacy policy
  • Ask us why. A person can tell you why a course was suggested, or why none was. Email success@tryrivet.co.

Questions

Is RIVET just selling courses?

The skills check recommends a course only when one fits, and every recommendation says it is RIVET’s own course. When no RIVET course teaches a skill, it says so and points to a free first step.

What happens to your answers

Four rules we don’t bend

  2. No plan figure below 10 companies.And never mixed with what people report about their own compensation.
  3. We never model a number we don’t have.Where there isn’t enough data, the page says so.
  4. No figure for any one company, ever.Not on the site, not in an edition, not on request.
