Measuring Digital Labour Market Transitions with a Digital Semantic Score: An AI-Based Methodology Applied to the Dutch Labour Market
The digital transformation of the Dutch labour market is reshaping occupational language, career pathways, and job-related skills. Addressing these changes requires granular labour market intelligence. This paper develops an AI-based methodology to analyse digitalisation using data covering millions of Dutch job profiles. The methodology combines embedding-based similarity search and large language model classification to map unstructured job information to harmonised ESCO occupations. We also introduce a Digital Semantic Score that measures how strongly job titles and skills are associated with digital concepts relative to a non-digital reference. Using embeddings and cosine similarity t...
