Work Wanted

During the job seeker registration process, after the final demographics page (Needs and Barriers) has been completed, the Edit Work Wanted page displays. This question is required to make the job seeker eligible for Labor Exchange (Job Service), and it also assists in providing better job matching opportunities for the job seeker. This can be edited at any time by clicking the Work Wanted section at the bottom of the Demographics Information (Overview) page, selecting the Work Wanted tile in Case Details, or from the job seeker's profile, in the Job Goals/Job Matching section. The job seeker should choose the primary occupation in which they are interested. To receive job matches for additional occupations, they should utilize the Resume Builder to create resumes for additional occupations.

  1. From the Edit Work Wanted page, in the Occupation Title field, enter a keyword related to the desired occupation. A drop-down list of related occupations should display. Select the most relevant occupation. Work Wanted without occupation screenshot
