US 2018/0121522 A1 · GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACES WITH CRITERIA BASED ENTITY RANKING

Abstract

Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, devices, and machine readable mediums for calculating an entity potential score for an entity that meets a defined entity selection criteria. The entity potential score quantifies an estimated likelihood that the entity will be successful in a predetermined timeframe by meeting predefined entity success criteria. Information on the entity may be determined (e.g., employee information, industry, financial information), various component subscores may be calculated and an entity potential score may be calculated for the entity. This entity potential score may be presented to one or more members of the network accessible computer-based service. For example, the entity potential score may be displayed along with a web-page describing the entity. The entity potential score may be searchable such that a user may specify a maximum, minimum, or range of entity potential scores as a search criteria for a search for entities.

Claims24

Dependent claims

A method for providing using a network accessible computer-based service Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) that include a visual indication of an entity's potential, the method comprising:

at the network accessible computer-based service, using a processor:
accessing member profiles of a set of one or more members of the computer-based service, each member of the set of one or more members indicating in their respective member profiles that they work for a target entity;
calculating an employee prestige score for each respective member in the set based upon an educational institution attended by the respective member and past work experience attained by the respective member, the educational institution and past work experience determined based upon a respective member profile of the respective member;
calculating an entity potential score for the entity based upon the employee prestige scores of the employees in the set, the entity potential score quantifying a predicted likelihood that the entity meets predetermined entity successfulness criteria;
and
providing the entity potential score in a GUI provided by the computer-based service.

3 more elements

A non-transitory machine-readable medium for providing, using a network accessible computer-based service, Graphical User interfaces (GUIs) that include a visual indication of an entity's potential, the machine-readable medium comprising instructions, which when performed by a machine cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

at the network accessible computer-based service, using a processor:
accessing member profiles of a set of one or more members of the computer-based service, each member of the set of one or more members indicating in their respective member profiles that they work for a target entity;
calculating an employee prestige score for each respective member in the set based upon an educational institution attended by the respective member and past work experience attained by the respective member, the educational institution and past work experience determined based upon a respective member profile of the respective member;
calculating an entity potential score for the entity based upon the employee prestige scores of the employees in the set, the entity potential score quantifying a predicted likelihood that the entity meets predetermined entity successfulness criteria;
and
providing the entity potential score in a GUI provided by the computer-based service.

3 more elements

A system comprising:

a processor;
a memory communicatively coupled with the processor and comprising instructions, which when performed by the processor cause the system to perform operations comprising:
accessing member profiles of a set of one or more members of the computer-based service, each member of the set of one or more members indicating in their respective member profiles that they work for a target entity;
calculating an employee prestige score for each respective member in the set based upon an educational institution attended by the respective member and past work experience attained by the respective member, the educational institution and past work experience determined based upon a respective member profile of the respective member;
calculating an entity potential score for the entity based upon the employee prestige scores of the employees in the set, the entity potential score quantifying a predicted likelihood that the entity meets predetermined entity successfulness criteria;
and
providing the entity potential score in a GUI provided by the computer-based service.
