Use a system profile to outline a resource description in terms
of skills, competencies, rate and years of experience. Create one system profile
for each resource type description for your organization requirements. For
example, to define resource descriptions for different programming resource
types, create one system profile for a Java programmer with 2 years of experience,
and then another system profile for a Java team leader with 5 years of experience.
