ACCOLADES
 “OLG’s Analytic Centre of Excellence has operationalized
Talent Analytics’ Data Scientist Benchmark into our hiring
process. We are now able to identify and proactively
explore potential gaps during the interview process rather
than discovering them after making the hire.
It’s proven to be an immensely valuable tool and should be
considered by any analytics hiring manager wanting to
enhance their success rate in hiring top data
scientists/analytics professionals. ”

STUDY CONCLUSIONS
Demographics
Many Analytics Professionals newer to
business, analytics, role and company
PhD not a requirement
Degree and skills often used as proxy for
“how someone thinks”

10 February 2014

43
STUDY CONCLUSIONS
Functional Clusters
Analytics workflow clusters into functional
areas
Few people well suited to entire analytics
spectrum; unrealistic; doesn’t scale
Many analysts less interested in: financial
compensation only; being promoted to
management role
10 February 2014

44
STUDY CONCLUSIONS
Raw Talent Mindset
Analytics professionals have a clear,
quantifiable “Raw Talent Mindset”
Employers using analytics to:
Compare analytics candidates to industry
benchmark
Develop a baseline of existing analytics
professionals
10 February 2014

ANALYTICS CAREER
Be honest. Why analytics?

Other than skills, what makes you stand out
 Generate demand? ROI insight? Focused expertise
in the workflow? Employee analytics?

Interview the interviewer about place in the
workflow

Editor's Notes

  1. For more than a decade Talent Analytics has been focused on modeling employee performance. Analytics has advanced – predicting and optimizing human performance – but with customers. Talent Analytics uses many of the same analytics approaches to model and optimize human performance– but with employees.Do a search on the term Talent Analytics. Even over the past 6 months there has been a huge explosion of interest in and solutions for these kinds of solutions. 95% of the Talent Analytics solutions out there are focused on taking existing activities and trying to use them as a proxy for inferring an understanding about employees.Talent Analytics is perhaps the only company in the world taking an analytics approach to directly measuring employee characteristics.Talent Analytics has been at least a decade ahead of the curve. Their solutions are tested. Mature. Advanced. High tech. Scalable and ready for deployment today.
  2. “Give me someone curious and they’ll teach themselves . . .“
  3. I wanted to begin with showing what all 4 clusters have in common. This slide shows a graph type called a Density Plot. Along thebottom (or X axis) we are measuing CURIOSITY. As a point of reference a BELL CURVE is a DENSITY plot as well. What you can see is that all 4 clusters are extremely curious. Every single position in our study showed people working in the role who were deeply curious, eager to learn, research oriented – people who are motivated by solving very sophisticated problems. NOTE: WHAT WE ARE MEASURING HERE IS CALLED RAW TALENT. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN TRAIN
  4. IN this slide we are measuring another RAW TALENT characteristic – Creativity. We can see that all clusters tend to being highly creative people. We’re not coving it in this presentation – buit we did ask about people’s college degrees and majors and a very small percentage of people had a crativedegree.meaning to find these folks requires another way other than college degrees or majors.
  5. Density plot – showing the likelihood one person would
