Peta Pekerjaan
Peta Pekerjaan menyediakan titik data yang detail dan dapat diurutkan dalam format tabel, tetapi juga memungkinkan Anda memvisualisasikan setiap titik data pada peta regional yang dapat Anda sesuaikan dengan mudah. Untuk penulisan hibah, visual peta dapat bermanfaat untuk menunjukkan faktor-faktor penting seperti jumlah pekerjaan, pertumbuhan pekerjaan, data komuter, dan lokasi pekerjaan.

Dari sana, Anda dapat memilih metrik Anda. Fungsi "Telusuri" akan memungkinkan Anda melihat data untuk beberapa pekerjaan dalam kategori yang sama, seperti kelompok "Kerah Biru" yang ditunjukkan pada contoh ini.ampAnda juga dapat memasukkan wilayah secara manual, menelusuri wilayah, atau memilih berdasarkan Waktu Berkendara, Radius dari Alamat, atau grup prasetel lainnya. 
Refine your map and update the data parameters.
Once the map has loaded, use the drop-down menu to select the region by MSA, county, census tract, or zip code to tell your story. On the left side, you can also ad-just the occupations you want to look at, the region you want to explore, your time frames, and your worker class. Like most Lightcast reports, you can use the Add/Re-move Columns button to change the selected metrics.

When you click on the column header, the map will vi-sualize the data from that column. The eye dropper icon will also colorize the column as a heat map. The map can be customized to make it easier to see and read by se-lecting the layer mark on the top right corner of the map. In the example shown here, the column titled “2024 Net Commuters” is selected. This data shows where workers live and work.

Laporan Skenario Dampak
This report reveals deep insights into the regional economic impact of job creation, as well as the cost of an unfilled job—not only in a selected industry but also on the supply chain and the greater community. With this re-port, you can explore the direct, indirect, and multiplied impact on jobs, earnings, and taxes in the region, as well as the occupations that are most likely to be affected.
Lightcast’s Impact Scenario is the best tool for demonstrating and projecting workforce impact I’ve ever seen. Nobody else has anything close. I’ve used it for 21 years, and I can’t do without it.
I have literally saved companies and won grants and investments in community infra-structure with just this tool. It alone is worth the price of the software. It’s Lightcast’s most valuable workforce secret.

KASUS PENGGUNAAN
Second-Chance Occupations
Undang-Undang Kesempatan Kedua mengesahkan hibah federal untuk program-program yang membantu dalam mengambil langkah-langkah menuju masuk kembali ke dunia kerja dari sistem peradilan. Pengembang dapat membantu Anda mengidentifikasi dan meneliti pekerjaan dengan peluang kesempatan kedua yang tinggi.
Di Developer, gunakan Grup Pekerjaan yang disebut “Second Chance (SOC 2021)” untuk mengidentifikasi pekerjaan yang cenderung ramah bagi mereka yang ingin kembali bekerja.
Menggunakan kelompok pekerjaan ini dalam laporan seperti Tabel Pekerjaan dapat membantu mengidentifikasi pekerjaan yang banyak diminati dan lebih memungkinkan para pencari kerja memulai awal baru dalam dunia kerja.
