Job hunting is never easy, but what if data could be used to make the process a little less stressful?
Companies such as LinkedIn and Monster, com hold vast amounts of information on people’s professional lives, but there is one organization that surpasses them all: the federal government. Although rich and comprehensive, government labor data can often be hard to access, bound by red tape and cloaked in jargon.
" With today’s technologies, we can do a lot more to build open data sets for skills," said Aneesh Chopra, the White House’s first chief technology officer and founder of Arlington-based start-up Hunch Analytics. During his tenure, Chopra’s role involved making government data more accessible. It’s a mission he has continued after his departure, assembling a band of public officials, tech entrepreneurs and think-tank analysts whose focus is firmly on the labor market.
A robust economic recovery tempered by flat wages has reinforced the need to connect Americans with higher-paying technology jobs, according to the White House. That was the rationale behind the President’s new initiative, announced last week, to train and hire Americans for more than 500,000 unfilled information technology jobs through partnerships with local communities.
" There’s not a standard, real-time, modern way to identify all the skills our economy needs in play today. Workforce and talent planners have a daunting job in ensuring they have a ’ ready-now’ workforce, so the more data they can get, the better informed they are. " said Leighanne Levensaler, senior vice president of products at Workday, a human resources software company that was involved in the project.
The closest thing to a standard national database is the Labor Department’s Occupational Information Network Website, known as O * Net. Built in the 1990s, the site compiles data on more than 900 occupations, with details about job skills, average compensation and a search tool to find jobs by state. But although the site is continually updated, it has been slow to keep pace with the changing job market, according to Chopra and Levensaler.
A push to modernize O * Net is the group’s next big undertaking. The President’s 2016 budget proposal includes a $ 5 million request to study and test approaches " to modernize and potentially streamline data collection" for O * Net. The measure seeks to provide " up-to-date coverage of occupations and skills, particularly for high-growth, changing industries. " Chopra convened a roundtable of government officials, academics and private-sector executives last month to discuss measures to improve O * Net. Workday and LinkedIn are among the companies interested in the effort— which is still at a conceptual stage, Chopra said.
To open-data advocates such as Chopra, there’s no better time to harness the power of information for the economy. " No one company, no matter how amazing they are, has the capacity to get every employer in America to open up their skills data for every job posting," he said. "The government has the capacity to convene stakeholders to open up the data. "
The passage implies that Aneesh Chopra________.
选项
A、serves as the White House’s chief technology officer
B、sets up a company on the basis of government data
C、sticks to the improvement of government data sets
D、hires a group of experts on behalf of the government
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。定位句指出,安尼什·乔布拉在担任白宫首席技术官期间就想要让政府数据更具有可及性,而在其任期结束后,他仍然把这件事视为己任。可见,他一直致力于改进政府数据库,故答案为C)。A)“担任白宫首席技术官”,第三段首句提到,他是第一位白宫首席技术官,第三句又明确提到,他已经离任了,故可排除;B)“在政府数据基础上建立了一个公司”,第三段首句提到,他是汉驰公司的创始人,但并没有说该公司是在政府数据的基础上建立的,故排除;D)“代表政府雇用一群专家”,第三段第三句虽然讲到他聚集了一些专家,但是既没有提到存在雇用关系,也没有说是代表政府召集的,故排除。
