Editorial independence
Affiliate relationships never influence our role data, Role Evolution analysis, risk scores, archetype assignments, or any other editorial content on the platform. All career intelligence on Xtell is based on:
- Live UK job vacancy data from Adzuna
- McKinsey Global Institute Future of Work research
- LinkedIn Skills on the Rise 2026 data
- Independent analysis by the Xtell team
Course recommendations are matched to skills identified as rising or in-demand through our independent research process. We do not promote courses because of affiliate revenue — we link to courses that are relevant to the skills our data identifies.
