STEM and Green Task Bundles

This page compares official occupation labels with postings-derived task-bundle evidence in the NLx corpus. STEM is the main case: the task signal is large enough to support a fuller comparison between official O*NET/BLS STEM occupations and postings-derived STEM candidates. Green is included below as a smaller companion check.

NLx data disclaimer. The National Labor Exchange (NLx) Data Trust bear no responsibility for the analyses or interpretations of the data presented here.
Candidate convention. Postings-derived candidates use LLM-validated task IDs and minimum evidence screens. They are diagnostic posting measures, not replacements for official classifications.

STEM And Green Task Intensity

LLM-validated task mentions are divided by NLx monthly active jobs. This normalizes by the MAJ denominator rather than raw posting volume.

The chart is included to show whether the two task-domain signals move at similar scale before the page turns to occupation classification.

STEM Task Bundle

STEM task bundle. O*NET STEM task statements appearing in NLx postings, aggregated across SOC-2 groups. The figure is a visual guide to the task bundle used below; it is not a STEM-occupation label.

STEM_task_RCA = occupation STEM task share / corpus STEM task share

postings_derived_STEM_candidate = 1 when STEM_task_RCA > 1, active_jobs >= 25,000, STEM_task_mentions >= 250, distinct_STEM_task_IDs >= 5, STEM_mentions_per_active_job >= 0.08, and STEM_task_share >= 4%.

Table 2. Top occupations by LLM-validated STEM task RCA

Terms. RCA = occupation STEM task share / corpus STEM task share. Share = STEM task mentions / all task mentions for the occupation. Per job = STEM task mentions / active jobs.

Green Task Bundle Companion Check

Green task evidence moves in smaller steps than STEM in this NLx cut. The table below keeps the same official-vs-posting comparison, but the page treats it as a compact companion measure rather than a full standalone finding.

Green task bundle. O*NET green task statements appearing in NLx postings, aggregated across SOC-2 groups. This is a compact companion view for the green task bundle, not a green-occupation label.

Evidence Path

STEM and green task labels use separate two-model agreement procedures documented in Agreement And Audit Trail. RCA is defined in Methods.
