Emsi, the CVSuite data provider, recently launched Emsi Labs. Emsi provides the data that day to day users utilize within the CVSuite tool. According to Emsi’s blog post, the Emsi Labs are “interactive labor market prototypes” that allows users, “exclusive insights and a glimpse into the future of labor market information.” As sites begin to grow, developers are creating prototypes asking for feedback from their users. Emsi notes that these prototypes will continue to change but urge folks to try them out and provide feedback.
Two of the most intriguing Emsi Labs available currently are the Top MSAs by Occupation or Industry and Wage Distribution by Occupation & Location.
