• Title: SkillRec: A Data-Driven Approach to Job Skill Recommendation for Career Insights
• Authors: Xiang Qian Ong and Kwan Hui Lim
• Abstract summary: SkillRec collects and identifies the skill set required for a job based on the job descriptions published by companies hiring for these roles. Based on our preliminary experiments on a dataset of 6,000 job titles and descriptions, SkillRec shows a promising performance in terms of accuracy and F1-score.

• Abstract: Understanding the skill sets and knowledge required for any career is of utmost importance, but it is increasingly challenging in today's dynamic world with rapid changes in terms of the tools and techniques used. Thus, it is especially important to be able to accurately identify the required skill sets for any job for better career insights and development. In this paper, we propose and develop the Skill Recommendation (SkillRec) system for recommending the relevant job skills required for a given job based on the job title. SkillRec collects and identify the skill set required for a job based on the job descriptions published by companies hiring for these roles. In addition to the data collection and pre-processing capabilities, SkillRec also utilises word/sentence embedding techniques for job title representation, alongside a feed-forward neural network for job skill recommendation based on the job title representation. Based on our preliminary experiments on a dataset of 6,000 job titles and descriptions, SkillRec shows a promising performance in terms of accuracy and F1-score.

We also employ a similarity retriever to generate skill candidates which are then re-ranked using a second LLM.

  We present Choreographer, a model-based agent that exploits its world model to learn and adapt skills in imagination. Our method decouples the exploration and skill learning processes, being able to discover skills in the latent state space of the model. Choreographer is able to learn skills both from offline data, and by collecting data simultaneously with an exploration policy.

  In reinforcement learning, pre-trained low-level skills have the potential to greatly facilitate exploration. Prior knowledge of the downstream task is required to strike the right balance between generality (fine-grained control) and specificity (faster learning) in skill design. We propose a hierarchical skill learning framework that acquires skills of varying complexity in an unsupervised manner.
