Tools for America’s Job Seekers Challenge

By , About.com GuideDecember 4, 2009

Follow me on:

Tools for America's Job Seekers is a new venture from the U.S. Department of Labor. It's an effort to collaborate on bringing job seekers together with the best job sites - job search engines, job boards, and sites with tools for job searching. The challenge will connect workers with online career resources and offer an opportunity for career and job sites to showcase their best products. During Phase 1 (Open now) Providers of online job search engines, job boards and career exploration sites can learn more and submit their products at http://www.dol.gov/challenge/.

During the next phase, starting in January, job seekers will be able to provide feedback on the sites, and, of course, use the tools to apply for jobs.

There are lots of terrific career and job sites out there and this is a great way to connect with job seekers. So, don't wait to submit your site so it can be considered for the list. Keep in mind, job sites should be free to users (I love that rule!). Tools that have a fee must be made available free so they can be evaluated during the challenge.

Job seekers and career professionals, stay tuned for Phase 2 - I'll post a reminder when you can review the sites and provide feedback.
