2025 Skills Label Job Insights

NEW, Skills Label Insights offers LIVE, real-time Insights reports. Clicking on the report now calculates and renders a report from the current data from the Job Label Catalog. This guarantees the report updates as the Job Label Catalog grows (rather than a snapshot as a PDF on a date). Furthermore, the reports randomize some of the representations to reveal more of the jobs, sectors, and metro areas referred to in the data.

FUTURE, Skills Label Insights will include specific targeting, i.e. filtering, sorting, Vector Searching, to aid in the decision making of your corporation or the talent pool you are looking to cultivate.

SEED, in June 2025 Skills Label released a publicly accessible catalog of Job Label Templates (now numbering 680 jobs, 40 FT 500 corporations, 18 business sectors, in 16 metro areas). Each label is interpreted from job postings from top companies in banking, credit, finance, software, hardware, retail and apparel, food service and distribution, engineering, transportation, information technology, life sciences, and higher education – the movers of our current economy. Skills Label Insights are reports summarizing data from our catalog.

While we do not offer the breadth or reach of many of the standard job skills industry reports produced by WEF, LinkedIn, Indeed, Zip Recruiter, etc., many of our insights are in-line with theirs and this is referred to in the report. Though with our insights, we offer three clear advantages.

First, our patented Job Label design with skill definitions and classifications offer a refined lens. The Top 10 Technical and Transferable Skills, and Thinking Skills report identifies more precise, accurate, actionable skills than what is reported in the industry reports. The Thinking / Transferable Skill Combinations and Number of Jobs and Titles for Skill Profile Combinations reports offer an introspective job area based on a single thinking skill. The Job Label composition of 1 Thinking Skill, 5 Transferable Skills, 3 Focal, and 9 Technical Skills (on average) drives this result.

Second, our Job Label utilizes our proprietary Skill Points (SP) algorithm to quantify job skills in both past experience and first year application . The Skill Points Progression from Tier 1 to Tier 5, 6 Tier I Jobs with Applied Skill Points and Usage Rates, Focused Technical Skills in Categories, With Number of Jobs and Skill Points, and 9 Software Engineer and 5 Software Development Jobs Aggregated with Skill Points reports each highlight Skill Points as an ideal measurement for career progression and candidate evaluations.

Third, our Skill Requirements for 12 Industry Sectors, Skills in Metro Areas, and Annualized Skill Compensations reports prove our skill classifications and compositions enable managers and job seekers to evaluate and compare skills across sectors and other macro categories.
