What is a Market Query?
The Market Queries tool is designed to be your powerhouse reporting resource for both ad-hoc and annual compensation planning exercises. You can quickly create complex and highly-targeted queries to download data directly to Excel for all available job families in multiple talent markets at the same time. You also have the option to download data for one, or a handful, of job families if needed. Here are the steps to run a Market Query. In order for your Market Query to run you need to select jobs, data elements and have at least one breakout in your report.
