Abstract
A method of sharing recruiting data between business units of an organization is disclosed. It is determined that a first business unit has a contract to use a first set of resources of a social-networking system to manage a first set of profiles. It is determined that a second business unit has a contract to use a second set of resources to manage a second set of profiles. It is determined that the first entity used the first set of resources to create a private data item and to associate the private data item with a profile of the first set of profiles. It is determined that the profile of the first set of profiles and a profile of the second set of profiles correspond to the same person. The second entity is provided with access to the private data item, but not control of the first set of resources.
