New AI Agent for Job Skills Enrichment

Enrich job profiles with AI-suggested skills using a new AI agent called Job Skills Enrichment. This agent analyzes the job description, job title, skills associated with the job profile, your organization’s skills library, and other relevant HCM transactional data, and suggests new or additional skills that are relevant to the job profile.

Note: These skill suggestions are added as ‘pending’ (also known as uncurated). It requires an administrator to review and approve these skills to be added to a job profile.

When a job profile is enriched with relevant skills, the Gap Recommender process compares the skills in an employee’s talent profile against the skills defined in the job profile and suggests relevant learning items in Grow to help address these gaps. 

Before you run this agent, you need to create a filtered list to identify the jobs that you want to add the suggested skills to. While creating the filtered list, you need to choose a job family, job function, job set, or active jobs, as the filter criteria. The jobs relevant to these categories are then identified as a part of this list. When running the agent, you need to select this filtered list name. If you’ve included a job function or family in the filtered list, the AI agent suggests relevant skills for each job in that function or family.

For each job, the AI agent looks for an associated job profile and suggests skills for that job profile. If a job profile doesn’t exist, it creates one in inactive status, and marks it as ‘Needs Review’, and adds suggested skills to it. If the job profile already exists, it may also add suggested skills to it. If it does, it will only update it as ‘Needs Review’, but not change the status (active or inactive).

When the skill suggestions are made, they have a confidence score based on the relevancy of the skill to the job. You can use this confidence score value to determine which skills should be automatically approved, which ones you want to review and decide whether to approve or reject, and which not to consider at all.

You can also limit the total number of skills that can be suggested across both auto-approval and manual review categories. This will select the highest scoring skills across both categories. The number of skills selected will be up to the limit you define.
