Redwood: View Enhanced Skill Suggestions in Skills Center Using Generative AI

Provides enhanced skill suggestions using recommendation profiles, which are powered by generative AI and recommender algorithm through a new profile option ORA_HRT_SKILLS_CENTER_SUGGESTIONS.

The below skills suggestion categories are created by recommender algorithm:

•   Skills popular in current role
•   Skills popular in careers of interest
•   Skills popular with managers and peers
•   Skills based on current role gaps

The below skills suggestion categories are from generative AI:

• Skills based on nonskill attributes on your talent profile
• Skills similar to your skills on talent profile

Skills suggestion in worker’s Skills Center

Before this upgrade, skill suggestions were provided based on predictive AI. You can now choose between predictive or generative AI by setting the ORA_HRT_SKILLS_CENTER_SUGGESTIONS profile option to one of these values:

Legacy – Uses predictive AI.
Next Generation – Uses generative AI.
Next Generation with Workflow Agents – Uses AI Agents based on Agent Studio, which enables you to customize the AI prompts to get skill suggestions based on your needs.

Skill suggestions based on generative AI are more relevant and contextual to the job title, capability guide, or gig compared to predictive AI. Generative AI provides relevant skill recommendations for job titles that include non-standard prefixes or suffixes—a scenario where predictive AI may encounter difficulties.

This feature gives you the flexibility to choose between different AI technologies when generating skill suggestions.
You can set up recurring recommendation profiles to suggest skills. This gives you control and flexibility to send skill recommendations based on your needs.
