NON-EDUCATION, NON-WORK COMPONENT: SUPERVISED JOB SEARCH Provide a summary of the State guidelines implementing supervised job search. The supervised job search component is for participants engaged in supervised job search. Agencies assist job search participants in applying job seeking skills with the goal of securing employment. State approved locations for supervised job search vary by region. Regional vendors select the locations such as onsite computer labs, if available, and public libraries based on what is available in the region. DHS decided to allow variation in approved locations throughout the State to meet the individual needs of each region. Vendors may use online tracking software that allows participants to conduct job search training from any location. The software allows the vendor to directly supervise the participants’ online job search activities. Vendors supervise and track the time and activities of participants through job search logs and other direct forms of supervision. Describe the direct path to employment. Case management is an integral part of all our FSET components, including supervised job search. Case managers meet with supervised job search participants at least monthly (oftentimes weekly) to monitor and assist participants in their job search progress. Case managers and job developers also assist participants in the following ways: • Employability assessments • Local labor market information • Job leads and job referrals • Job development and job placement, as needed • Working directly with employers and establishing relationships to advocate for FSET participants Indicate the Target Population this component will serve.
