Why we read it this way (7)
Employment type is not stated; left as Unspecified.
No compensation figures are provided.
The role is classified as 15-2031 (Operations Research Analysts) rather than 15-2051 (Data Scientists) because the primary work is reporting, dashboarding, KPI tracking, and labor market trend analysis — BI/analytics work — rather than modeling or statistical inference. 15-2051 is noted as a plausible runner-up.
Power BI and Tableau are listed together as interchangeable examples ('tools like Power BI, Tableau') in the required section; they are captured as a single skill with alternatives rather than two separate gates.
Workforce analytics and labor market analysis are retained as skills here because they describe a specific, domain-defined analytical discipline (workforce/labor data) rather than a generic methodology — they are the core subject-matter gates the JD explicitly calls out.
Data center or infrastructure workforce planning experience appears only under 'Preferred' and is marked accordingly.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): labor market analysis, data center workforce planning.
