TalentNeuron and CodeSignal expand partnership to offer the most comprehensive skills intelligence in the market.

TalentNeuron and CodeSignal expand partnership to offer the most comprehensive skills intelligence in the market. Nov 09, 2026, 08:47 ET Partnership combines market and competitor insights with validated skills measured from employees' real work to power build, buy, borrow, and bot workforce decisions NEW YORK, Nov. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - TalentNeuron, the workforce intelligence and planning company used by 60% of the Fortune 100, today announced an expanded partnership with CodeSignal, the agentic skills intelligence platform. Together, the two companies offer the most comprehensive skills intelligence available to employers: the skills that exist in the labor market and among competitors, the skills an organization's people have, and objective validation of how well they apply them. Organizations can use that intelligence to identify skills gaps in their current and future workforce, and then act to close them. AI is reshaping the tasks inside many roles, and skill requirements shift from quarter to quarter, yet most workforce plans still run on an annual cycle and rely on skills data employees report themselves, which is often inaccurate or out of date. Decisions made on that basis are hard to defend. Skills intelligence at every level TalentNeuron's skills intelligence is built into its data architecture and surfaces wherever workforce planning happens. Across the labor market, it shows how skills are evolving and trending, which skills are adjacent to one another, and the top skills for each role and industry. It also shows which skills business and talent competitors are hiring for, by role and location, how that has changed over time, and how those competitors define the skill expectations of each role. Inside the organization, TalentNeuron shows which skills in a company's own job architecture are rising or falling in demand, maps them against nearly 4,000 normalized market roles, and flags emerging market skills that are missing from internal role definitions. It builds a skills profile for each employee from CVs and LinkedIn profiles, extends it through skills adjacency, and supports manager validation of those skills. CodeSignal adds evidence of how well employees apply skills on the job. Its agents evaluate the real work employees produce in the tools they already use, such as GitHub, Salesforce, and Gong, against structured rubrics grounded in industrial-organizational psychology. The approach builds on the skills science behind more than 21 million skill evaluations completed on CodeSignal. This creates living skills profiles that update as people demonstrate their skills. When gaps emerge, Cosmo, CodeSignal's AI coach, builds tailored practice based on each person's work to help them improve. Leaders can use that evidence alongside TalentNeuron's market and competitor insights to understand where workforce capabilities meet business needs and where to invest next. From skills gaps to decisions With that intelligence, organizations can see the skills gaps in their current workforce, by location, talent segment or other workforce variables, and project the gaps they will face over a multi-year planning horizon based on the skills their strategy requires. Those gaps then drive the choice of how to close them: build, buy, borrow or bot. Measured skills help leaders identify which capabilities to develop and where employees could move into new opportunities. Cosmo, CodeSignal's AI coach, supports that development with contextualized practice and coaching tailored to the skills each person needs to strengthen. TalentNeuron's labor market intelligence shows where, what and when to hire, with continuously updated data on talent supply, cost, demand and competitor hiring. TalentNeuron also shows which tasks are exposed to automation, informing bot and borrow decisions. "Skills intelligence is built into the foundation of everything we do, and it shows up wherever our customers make workforce planning decisions. With the addition of objective validation from CodeSignal, our customers now have the most complete view of skills available anywhere," said David Wilkins, CEO of TalentNeuron. "Even as automation grows, build and buy are still the two biggest decisions every organization makes. CodeSignal's validated skills tell you when to build, who to develop, and how. TalentNeuron's labor market intelligence tells you where, what, and when to buy. Between us, leaders now have access to an unassailable data set." "Leaders need to know who can take on the work ahead and who could get there with the right support," said Tigran Sloyan, CEO and co-founder of CodeSignal. "CodeSignal measures what employees can do from the work they already produce, then helps them build the skills they need next. Alongside TalentNeuron's market intelligence, that gives organizations a stronger basis for making strategic workforce planning decisions." Availability The expanded partnership is available today. TalentNeuron and CodeSignal customers can start using the two companies' capabilities together immediately by contacting their account team. See it at TalentNeuron Live The expanded CodeSignal partnership will be part of the agenda at TalentNeuron Live on Nov. 18, where David Wilkins and Tigran Sloyan will discuss the current state of skills intelligence and strategic workforce planning.

TalentNeuron and BCG partner to help companies redesign their workforces for AI.

TalentNeuron and BCG partner to help companies redesign their workforces for AI. Oct 19, 2026, 08:34 ET Partnership combines BCG's transformation expertise with TalentNeuron's workforce intelligence, so leaders can base decisions about AI, cost and skills on how work is changing inside and outside their organizations NEW YORK, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - TalentNeuron and Boston Consulting Group (BCG) today announced a strategic partnership to help organizations make faster, better-evidenced decisions about how AI, cost pressure and changing skill needs will reshape their workforce. The partnership combines BCG's talent, organization and transformation expertise with TalentNeuron's workforce intelligence technologies, including labor market intelligence, skills intelligence and internal talent intelligence. AI is the primary force in an era of massive workforce transformation. BCG Institute research published in April 2026 estimates that over the next two to three years, 50% to 55% of jobs in the US will be reshaped by AI, and that 10% to 15% of jobs in the US could be eliminated over roughly five years. BCG's 2026 AI at Work survey of close to 12,000 frontline employees, managers, and leaders in more than a dozen global markets found that 72% say AI has already considerably changed skills expectations in their roles. The same research shows that strategic clarity from leadership pays big dividends, lifting measurable business impact by 25 percentage points, while better tools without strategy and redesign only move it by about 5 points. Companies therefore need to redesign work and operating models around people rather than just deploying tools. Combining Strategic Expertise with Workforce Intelligence The partnership addresses the questions now on most executive agendas: how AI will change the work each role performs, how to manage workforce cost while protecting the capabilities growth depends on, and which skills to build, hire or automate. Together, BCG and TalentNeuron provide organizations with an informed view of their current and future workforce that is grounded in the external labor market and connected to business outcomes. BCG brings deep expertise in talent, skills and organization design, along with the experience to carry workforce plans through to execution. Its Talent & Skills practice includes an extensive global network of specialists with an established track record of delivering impact for clients across industries. TalentNeuron brings a workforce intelligence and planning platform used by more than 60% of the Fortune 100. The platform connects a company's internal workforce data to more than 25 years of labor market intelligence, covering roughly 2 billion candidate profiles, more than 65,000 skills and about 3 million job postings processed each day in 33 languages. From Insight to Action Working together, the two firms will help clients see how AI will change work at the level of individual tasks and roles, model the cost and capability effects of different scenarios, and decide where to hire, reskill, redeploy or automate. TalentNeuron's platform can remain in place after an engagement, so the workforce plan can be updated as business strategy and labor market conditions evolve. "Most of our clients know AI will change how work gets done. Far fewer can say which roles it will change, by how much, and how their workforce will need to evolve as a result," said Suketu Shah, BCG managing director and senior partner, and global topic leader for talent and skills. "TalentNeuron gives our teams a market-calibrated view of roles and skills, so the workforce decisions we help clients make rest on evidence from the labor market as well as their own data." "Every company now faces hard questions about automation, skills and how its workforce should change under different scenarios. Few have built the capability to answer them, because it takes expertise and technology together, at a scale most organizations don't yet have," said David Wilkins, Chief Executive Officer of TalentNeuron. "BCG brings the judgment to reach clear, defensible answers today. TalentNeuron gives clients the system to continuously update those answers as work and labor market conditions inevitably change over time." About TalentNeuron TalentNeuron is the only solution that drives workforce transformation by unifying internal talent intelligence and external market insight. Over 60% of the Fortune100 are using TalentNeuron to move beyond fragmented talent planning and toward a model where strategic workforce decisions are made through comprehensive analytics, including demand forecasting, automation impact analysis, scenario modeling, and talent optimization.
