What do I need to run this recipe, and what comes back?
You send customer and peer company list, function mapping and people feed. You get back peer comparison, skills by function and source companies for each skill, as JSON. You also need a Forager API key, which comes with a free account.
Which people data feed includes skills and roles?
This recipe uses Forager People data feed and Company data feed. People data feed: A licensed file of 800M+ professional profiles, refreshed on a schedule and delivered to Snowflake or S3. Show a talent-intelligence product's users how their workforce's skills and functions compare with peer companies, to plan hiring and training.
Can teams running this workflow see a sample of the people data feed before licensing it?
Yes. Request a sample extract of the people data feed on a 30-minute call and check the fields against your own records before you license it.
When should I run this workflow?
An HR or workforce-planning team runs its annual skills review, or plans a new capability. Workforce planners see which skills they are short of against peers and where that talent tends to come from.
Which Forager products does this recipe use?
People data feed and company data feed. People data feed: a licensed file of 800M+ professional profiles, refreshed on a schedule and delivered to Snowflake or S3. Company data feed: a licensed file of 65M+ company profiles and firmographics, delivered to Snowflake or S3 on a schedule.
How accurate is Forager data?
The test that counts is your own: send a list of profiles you care about. We run it and show you what we find, number by number, so you can measure hit rate and connect rate yourself.
Which tools can run this workflow?
Delivered as a data share to Snowflake, Databricks and Amazon S3. Or call the endpoints in the steps above from your own code with one API key.
How many steps is this workflow?
4 steps: load people_feed and select current roles at the customer and its peers (forager_organization_id), group people by function from role_title and count skills per function, compare skill share and team size by function across the peer set and show the gaps and where peers hired that talent from (prior roles).
Is there a contract or minimum commitment?
Data feeds are licensed on an annual agreement, with the term, volume and refresh schedule written into it. There are no self-serve plans for feeds.
Can our users see Forager data in our product?
Yes, under platform terms. Self-serve plans cover internal use by your own team. Showing Forager data to your users, or passing records on, is licensed separately: talk to sales about volume and which fields your users need to see.
