    Legal questions around a new start-up I'm building to help professionals with career growth and development
    Chris Campbell
     
    Hi All!

    I'm starting to build a new social platform that will help professionals with their career growth and development. I have some questions below if anyone is interested in providing some feedback.

    High level overview of our application features:
    • Provide a mechanism for professionals to rate themselves and others on the hard and soft skills
    • Provide a mechanism to allow professionals to be awarded badges for additional services performed above and beyond their normal responsibilities
    • Provide a mechanism to allow professionals to give and receive feedback to each other
      • Allow this feedback to be internal to the company or external/public to the professional (allowing the professional to own that feedback as well after they leave the company)
      • Allow the company the ability to manage feedback settings through a company policy
      • note: we want to empower professionals to own more of their professional data/feedback. Allowing the professional to accept public feedback and/or show/hide on their public profile
    • Future features may include:
      • Tools for managers to help direct reports with their career growth
      • Analytics and tools to help C-level gain better insights into department health
      • Formal Review features
      • Hiring platform / professional search
      • HR services


    Questions:
    1. Are there any legal concerns for allowing feedback of professionals to be internal AND external (depending on the type of feedback issued)
    2. Are there any legal issues with any of the above features that we should be concerned about?
    3. Is this an application that HR professionals would want to use?
