[TalentSignal] Quick update on schema.org

Hello all,

Schema.org was updated <https://schema.org/docs/releases.html> at the 
beginning of June [1]. The updated included changes to the definition 
and range of occupationalCategory 
<https://schema.org/occupationalCategory> [2] so that it is more 
flexible in the coding schemes that can be used and less US-centric. 
This is a result of our discussions on the topic in April (see our wiki 
<https://www.w3.org/community/talent-signal/wiki/Better_more_flexible_coding_of_Occupational_Category> 
for a reminder of the details [3]).

Sadly the proposal to add a start date for jobs (see wiki page 
<https://www.w3.org/community/talent-signal/wiki/Provide_start_date_for_job>[4]) 
seems to have been skipped over. I don't know why. I will follow this up 
and hopefully it will be in the next release.

Regards, Phil
