New Design Streamlines Services and Features


Job seeking Utahns will find a new online interface at jobs.utah.gov following a redesign of the Department of Workforce Services’ website.

The new web design creates a more user-friendly experience, increases efficiency with a more targeted approach to job-seeking, and is entirely compatible with mobile devices. Whether users are on a desktop, tablet, or smartphone, jobs.utah.gov will run smoothly to connect them with job information.

Customers will be able to seamlessly search and apply for jobs, find an employment center nearby, and access extensive labor market information and other services more easily than before. The new site is also more interactive, highlighting improved integration with social media outlets.

Jobs.utah.gov receives an average of 1.2 million total visits per month from 500,000 unique visitors. Over the past year, the site facilitated 11.7 million job referrals. The number of people accessing the site with mobile devices grew from 12 percent in January 2012 to 23 percent in April 2013.
