South Carolina JobLink Goes Live!

An exciting new resource greeted South Carolina job seekers, employers, and workforce professionals on Tuesday, January 22nd: South Carolina JobLink!

South Carolina JobLink (SCJL) is the South Carolina Employment Security Commission’s implementation of America’s JobLink, a web-based one-stop system that integrates employer and job seeker self-service with services provided by workforce professionals. SCESC just made job matching easier, more efficient, and more effective statewide, 24/7, at www.scjoblink.org. “JobLink provides us with the ability to offer expanded services to our customers. The presence on the web and the self-service features add new dimensions to facilitate the connection of employers and job seekers in South Carolina,” said Steve Marshall, Deputy Executive Director of Employment and Training.

SCJL also positively affects workforce managers and administrators by meeting all federally-mandated data collection and reporting requirements. In addition to required reports, the comprehensive online reporting capabilities include numerous management information reports and real-time labor market statistics for economic development analysis and planning.

Working together in a collaborative partnership, SCESC and America’s Job Link Alliance – Technical Support converted SCESC data and implemented SCJL within budget, according to a jointly-developed project management plan.

America’s Job Link Alliance is a consortium of 26 states who share the development and implementation costs of workforce development software. To learn more about AJLA, go to www.ajla.net or contact John Williamson, Marketing Coordinator, at jwilliamson@ajla.net or (785) 296-5003.
