Description:
The U.S. Department of Labor’s (DOL)
Employment and Training
Administration (ETA), in conjunction
with the White House and IdeaScale, is
launching the Jobs for America’s Job
Seekers Challenge. Using an online
platform designed by IdeaScale, the
Challenge will allow toolmakers and
developers to present their free online
job tools to workforce development
experts and jobseekers for discussion,
rating, and voting. The tools that receive
the most votes will be shared broadly
with the workforce investment system
and jobseekers, and listed on
government Web sites like https://
www.CareerOneStop.org, https://
www.Workforce3One.org, and https://
www.DOLETA.gov. This is not an
opportunity to apply for government
funding and ETA will not make any
funds available to any party pursuant to
this announcement.
The Challenge will consist of three
phases. Phase 1 will run from November
30, 2009 to December 18, 2009. In this
phase, toolmakers and developers will
submit information on their free online
job search and job matching tools. These
tools must be free to the job seeker, but
can be licensed by the workforce system
at the State or local level provided the
companies offer a short-term demo or
other platform that allows the tools to be
reviewed free of charge. Submissions
will be accepted from businesses,
nonprofits organizations, entrepreneurs,
and State and local workforce agencies.
The tools will be organized into one or
more of the following categories:
• General job boards, listing sites, and
aggregators
• Niche job boards
• Career advancement tools
• Web based career exploration sites
• Web 2.0/social media sites
specializing in job searches or job
postings
• Other job tools
Phase 2 will run from January 4 to
January 15, 2010. During this phase,
workforce development experts and job
seekers will review and vote on the
submitted job search and matching
tools. Reviewers will be encouraged to
consider a tool’s usability based on how
effective the tool is in providing
accurate results, how efficient it is in
completing job search and matching

tasks in a reasonable amount of time,
and the level of satisfaction the user felt.
Phase 3 will begin on January 18,
2010. In this final phase, DOL, ETA, and
the White House will communicate the
top tools in each category with the
entire workforce development
community and job seekers through a
variety of mediums, including:
(1) Posting an announcement of the
top ranking tools on key Web sites
including;
a. DOL.gov
b. Doleta.gov
c. White House OSTP blog
d. Workforce3one.org
e. Other sites
(2) Highlighting free tools on ETA’s
https://www.CareerOneStop.org portal,
which already houses a variety of tools
for the workforce system;
(3) Hosting Webinars featuring the top
ranking tools on Workforce3one.org;
(4) Utilizing other communication
outlets such as national associations and
Intergovernmental organizations like the
National Association of State Workforce
Agencies, the National Association of
Workforce Boards, the National
Governor’s Association, the National
Association of Counties, and the
Association of Community Colleges.
As a result of the Challenge, the
workforce development system will
quickly boost its capacity to meet the
job information needs of the
significantly increased number of
customers requiring service in the
current economic recovery effort.
Why Are We Requesting Emergency
Processing?
In today’s tight employment market
that has experienced a 10.2 percent
unemployment rate that is the highest in
26 years, the publicly funded workforce
investment system has a major
responsibility to maximize unemployed
workers’ opportunities for rapid
reemployment by quickly connecting
them to the full scope of available jobs.
We know the workforce system is
working hard to connect workforce
system customers to the best job search
resources available. However, as a result
of technological innovations, new job
search tools have been launched and
new tools are emerging daily that help
job seekers find jobs and target their
search to the most relevant employment
opportunities.
Expedited or Emergency approval of
this data collection will enable the
Department of Labor (DOL),
Employment and Training
Administration (ETA), and the White
House to respond aggressively to the
record unemployment rates. Failure to
start the Challenge and do the collection

by November 30, 2009 would waste
federal Recovery Act and State
resources. Many States and local areas
are individually searching for job
matching and job search solutions to
meet the significantly increased number
of job seekers in need of assistance in
One Stop Career Centers nationwide as
a result of the historic downturn in the
nation’s economy.
