WorkOhio Launched to Provide Personalized Support to Job Seekers

Lt. Governor Jim Tressel announced the launch of WorkOhio – a new initiative to connect Ohioans with in-demand jobs through personalized support from teams of regional job experts. The intention is to help Ohioans find great jobs, especially in high-demand fields.

WorkOhio serves as a “front door” to these resources, allowing Ohioans to navigate the job tools that fit them best, all in one convenient online location. At the center of WorkOhio is a new website – WorkOhio.gov – an easy-to-use starting point for anyone looking for new job opportunities, training programs, or other resources aligned with their background, experience, and goals. On the website, Ohioans can select the region where they live or want to work. From there, they can submit a short contact form requesting one-on-one support and a job expert who lives in their region will connect with them within two business days. WorkOhio is free and no login is required.

WorkOhio also supports users who prefer to explore on their own. The website offers resources and guidance tailored to different stages of life and career paths – helping job seekers of all backgrounds quickly find the job tools most relevant to them.
