Introduction: Identifying and allocating resources in software development projects can be a complex task for the project manager, especially in large companies. The use of People Analytics techniques to collect, store and make available data on individuals' competencies can save time in this process. The objective of this article was to perform a systematic mapping of the literature with a view to systematizing information related to human resource competencies for use in planning software projects and developing efficient teams, using individual data for selection and allocation of employees in software projects. Method: The methodology used was Systematic Literature Mapping (SLM). Results: The articles analyzed used PA techniques to represent feelings, promote, retain and predict burnout, stress and turnover of human resources by generating insights for human resource management. Conclusion: This SLM provides a mapping of the PA techniques that were used in primary articles and to which problems they were applied as well as their contributions to improving human resource management.
