Inferred and Calculated Fields

In some cases, Live Data will infer values or calculate new values based on observed data. The latest standard for these kinds of fields is to provide a <field>_details dict that contains calculated values or field metadata.

Job Level and Function

The original calculated values, the level and function fields are derived from the observed title field, using an AI-based model trained on millions of mappings. The values predate the _details standard, so are available as top-level fields on a job.

Location Details

The location_details dict provides detailed location data, such as zip code and MSA, based on the observed location field. The details are populated using AI-based derivation techniques from the observed location. Not all original location values have mapping values at this time.

Started-At Details

The started_at_details dict provides metadata relevant for the started_at value at the same level. This metadata is as follows:

confidence - a measure of how confident Live Data is in the started_at value. These levels are as follows:

• validated - the start date has been validated through direct observation
• low - the start date has been inferred from other observed data. The accuracy rate for this level is 65% of low values are within 3 months of the actual job start date
• medium - not yet available
• high - not yet available
