Talent market intelligence for a role: AI agent prompt
Turn a job description into a hiring-manager brief with comparable roles, pay ranges, and talent-pool notes across locations, like the ChatGPT Work tool Oracle's talent acquisition team built that cut research from 2–4 days to about 15–20 minutes.
HR & PeopleRecruiting researchbeginnerThe prompt
Build a talent market intelligence brief for this role. Job description: [paste]. Target locations: [list]. Our pay band if known: [paste or say unknown]. Research comparable titles, typical experience, and public compensation ranges for each location. Assess how deep the talent pool looks (scarce / moderate / plentiful) and name 3–5 competitor or peer employers who hire similar roles. Finish with 5 sharp questions I should ask the hiring manager in the intake meeting. Cite the kind of public source you'd use for each pay figure (job boards, salary sites, government data). Mark anything you're unsure about; don't invent exact salaries.

- Don't let AI make the final call on hiring, pay, performance or discipline. Use it to organise information, and have a person decide using criteria you can explain.
- Check names, dates, numbers and any claim against your own source material before you use the answer. AI can misread or invent details.
