SAN JOSE, Calif. - April 21, 2021 - PRLog -- San Jose-based MyVerse announced a partnership with the world's preeminent data analytics firm, Burning Glass Technologies (https://www.burning-glass.com/), to utilize its NOVA™ Real Time Job Feed. Burning Glass uses proprietary methods to deduplicate, analyze, enrich, and facet job data to provide the highest quality and richest jobs dataset available. With unemployment numbers at 25.1%, according to Ludwig Institute for Shared Economic Prosperity, MyVerse is dedicated to helping veterans, parolees, and anyone out of work find the jobs best suited to them. As of this week, the site had over 872,892 jobs available.

NOVA™ provides standardized job information from more than 45,000 sources and ensures that skills, qualifications, and other features are contextually correct and indexed to the labor market ontology. This partnership will enable MyVerse users to find open jobs relevant to them by going through a simple process starting with getting psychometrically matched to a career. Beyond this, MyVerse will now be able to analyze workforce data to design more effective back-to-work retraining programs, understand labor trends, perform economic research to inform macroeconomic policy, identify business leads, and save time with accurate job data results.

"One of the most critical needs for people in the job market is to have up-to-date, detailed information about the skills in demand and how they can get them. We're pleased to be the jobs source supporting the MyVerse site, an innovative platform for workers trying to determine the next step in their career," said Matt Sigelman, CEO of Burning Glass Technologies.
