Internal Mobility & Skills Gap Analytics

Deploy the talent you already have. Map hidden skills and prove training ROI.

Global enterprises struggle to identify and deploy internal talent, often overspending on external hiring while existing employees stagnate. Learning and Development teams can upload internal training completion logs, performance review texts, peer endorsements, and project outcomes to map the company's hidden skill inventory. The platform identifies which combinations of cross-departmental training and mentorship lead to successful internal promotions.

By analyzing unstructured performance feedback, HR leaders can map nuanced capabilities like architectural system design that standard HRIS tags miss. Using hardcoded, hallucination-free calculations, L&D directors can build precise upskilling pathways, match internal employees to critical project gaps, and prove the ROI of their corporate training budgets.

Data Preparation

Use Steeped AI's data preparation to reconcile training records, HRIS exports, and review text into one clean employee dataset, unifying job titles and skill tags. When the same skill is logged five ways, Steeped AI standardizes it first, so mobility analysis runs on a trustworthy talent map.

Titles "Sr. Eng", "Senior Engineer" and "SWE III" were unified
Merged training records from 3 LMS platforms
Skill tags were mapped to a single competency taxonomy
Removed column "legacy_grade" because 82% were blank
Duplicate course completions for one employee were merged
