GOT is now Lightcast Occupation Taxonomy (LOT)

Analyst, Analyst - Canada, Developer, New, New, New, New, Talent, UK Analyst · October 27, 2022

We officially changed the name of our Global Occupation Taxonomy (GOT) to Lightcast Occupation Taxonomy (LOT).

LOT is a proprietary taxonomy composed of 4 different levels (Career Area, Occupation Group, Occupation, Specialized Occupation). This taxonomy has a 1-1 relationship between levels, allows users to start broadly and then get to a level far more granular than O*NET and SOC, and is also updated at least annually. The frequency with which this taxonomy is updated makes it especially useful for identifying emerging roles and occupations.

New Features for September

Economy Overview Update

New metrics to provide insight into your region

We’ve added a new chart to our Economy Overview that looks at the in-demand skills from job postings over time. You can use this chart to track emerging skills demand in your area.

You can find the new chart in the Economy Overview report now.

Automation

See what occupations are at risk of automation in your area

We’ve added our automation index to the Occupation Table within Analyst. This index looks at the individual tasks of an occupation and provides a percentage that indicates how many of those tasks are at risk of automation. The higher the percentage, the more at risk the occupation is.

Strength Finder Cluster Table

Quickly identify areas of opportunity in your region

Strength Finder now has a table breakdown of all 49 clusters found in the bubble chart. This provides key metrics on each industry cluster.

You can find the table underneath the bubble chart in the Cluster Explorer report of Strength Finder.
