Mobile App Enhances Indiana Career Connect
INDIANAPOLIS (June 22, 2018) –
Looking for a job
just got a whole lot easier, thanks to the mobile app called ICC Jobs available
from the Indiana Department of Workforce Development. Job seekers in Indiana
have the option to use the app created for the state’s job board, Indiana
Career Connect (ICC).
DWD launched the mobile
app to complement ICC and expand the reach, flexibility and use of Indiana’s
premier job search portal. The modernized ICC, launched in 2016, was accessed
by over 215,000 unique visitors in 2017 and included nearly 120,000 job
postings and more than 60,000 résumé postings last year.
The free app can be
downloaded from the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store by searching for “ICC Jobs.” New users can register an
account via the app or access open positions using the guest login
feature. Current ICC website users can use the same sign-on credentials
created on the ICC website (www.indianacareerconnect.com) to access the ICC
mobile app.
“The ICC mobile app
is a perfect complement to the Indiana Career Connect site itself,” said DWD
Commissioner Fred Payne. “It gives job seekers an anytime, anyplace opportunity
to stay connected with the current job market while also giving the ability to
update personal resume and skill attributes for employers to see.”
The ICC mobile app
uses location services to pinpoint the employers who are hiring near specific
locations using advanced GEO technology (color-coded by industry). The most popular features from
the ICC Mobile App include providing the location of nearby WorkOne Career
Centers, the ability to favorite job openings and a functional calendar to set
follow-up reminders for appointments.
