How do I configure and run the Job Skills Enrichment agent?

Enrich job profiles with AI-suggested skills using the Job Skills Enrichment agent. 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 extra skills that are relevant to the job profile.

Before you start

The HCM Application Administrator role needs to have the functional security privilege, WLF_MANAGE_JOBS_BULK_SKILLS_ADVISOR (Manage Job Skills Enrichment Agent), to run this agent.

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

Here's what to do

  1. Configure and run this agent:
    1. Go to My Client Groups > Learning and Development. In the HCM agents section, click Job Skills Enrichment.
    2. From the Add menu, select Job Skills Enrichment.
    3. Enter a name and description for the agent.
    4. From Filtered List, select a job-specific list that you want to add skills to.
      If you don’t find the jobs list you’re looking for, click the Manage Filtered Lists link to create a new list. To create a filtered list for use with this agent, select the Jobs object and the Grow subscriber. From the Conditions section, select a job family, function, job set or active jobs.
    5. Specify the confidence score thresholds to filter skills for your review and for automatic approval. If you don’t specify any confidence score threshold, you’ll need to review all skill suggestions manually.
    • Confidence score threshold for automatic approval: Any skill with a score equal to or above this threshold will be automatically approved and added to a job profile, with a curation status of Yes.
    • Confidence threshold for your review: Any skill with a score above this threshold (but below the auto-approval threshold), will be added to the job profile with a curation status of No, which you can then review and approve. Note that skills in this status are only visible to administrators, giving them the ability to review these items either in the Microsoft Excel workbook or from My Client Groups > Profiles > Job Profiles.

      Any skills with a score below the manual review threshold won’t be suggested as part of the Microsoft Excel workbook or added to the job profile for you to review.

    1. Define the maximum number of highest scoring skills to suggest across both auto-approval and manual review categories.

      The number of skills selected will be up to the limit you define.

    2. Click Apply.
    3. On the Learning and Development Agents page, select the agent and click Run Agent.
    4. When the agent completes, click Download and Update. This downloads a Microsoft Excel workbook where skill suggestions are added by Oracle AI.
    Note: Before you can review the Excel workbook, you need to download and install the Desktop Integration Installer tool from Navigator > Tools.
  2. Review the Microsoft Excel workbook and upload the skills to the respective job profiles:
    1. Review the skills that you want to add or remove from each job profile, change the approval status in the Skill Curation Status column.
    2. On the Oracle Visual Builder tab in the Microsoft Excel plug-in, click Upload Changes.
  3. Verify whether the skills are added to the skill catalog:
    1. On the My Client Groups > Profiles page, click Job Profiles.
    2. Search for the job profile name. If the job profile didn’t exist before, the AI agent would have created it in Inactive status. So clear the Active filter if it was applied before.
    3. Click the job profile. Note that the profile will be in Needs Review status regardless of whether the skills have a curation status of Yes or No.
    4. Scroll down to the content section that’s subscribed to Skills Center.
    5. Click the Edit icon to change the curation status.
      Unreviewed skills (curation status of No) are also added to this section. However, employees won’t see the skills as part of their job profile until you approve them and change the curation status to Yes. As an administrator, you can decide whether to allow the Gap recommender process to consider these unreviewed skills for learning recommendations.
