Strategic Workforce Formation Through Eightfold AI's Job Intelligence Engine

This IDC Market Note discusses Eightfold AI's newly launched Job Intelligence Engine. As organizations mature, grow and, in the case of the COVID-19 pandemic, recover, leadership must take stock of their current workforce for an aggregate view of the skill sets present. Juxtaposing those skill sets with the goals of the organization can often yield a mismatch of skills for the tasks at hand. While some skills mismatch is inevitable, multiple small instances scattered throughout an organization can lead to a much larger gap and create an imperative for closing that gap through professional development, internal mobility, and talent acquisition. Recognizing the need in the market to understand these skills profiles from a holistic workforce perspective, Eightfold expanded upon its Talent Intelligence Platform with the Job Intelligence Engine. This new solution, coupled with the existing platform, provides a strong tool for HR professionals and C-suite leadership to think strategically not only about their business model but also their workforce and associated strategic plans.
