# How to import the job evaluation scores of a similar job

## Applies to: all SkillsTrust platform users

You can import the job evaluation scores from another job, for example when a new job is similar to one you have already evaluated and you want a consistent starting point.

### **Solution overview**

To import scores, open the job profile, click the menu icon (the three lines) in the top right, select Import scores, choose the source job, review the comparison, then save.

1. Select either **Overview** or **Job Catalogue** under the **Job Architecture** section from the left-hand menu.

2. Click on the job to open its job profile.

3. Click the **Menu** icon (the three lines) in the top right, next to the **Review** and **Edit** buttons, then select **Import scores**.

4. In the **Import Scores from Another Job** dialog, use the search box to find the job you want to copy scores from. Each result shows its job family, group and status.

5. Select the source job. A score comparison table appears, showing each subfactor with: 
     1. **Current:** the score on this job now.
     2. **Source:** the score on the job you are copying from.
     3. **Change:** the difference that will be applied, for example +5 or = for no change.

6. Review the comparison, then click **Save Changes** to apply the source scores to this job. To exit without importing, click **Cancel**.

**Note:** importing scores overwrites the current scores for this job. You can still edit any subfactor afterwards, and the change is recorded in the **Activity** tab.
