Insights from Skill Connect

The insights from [Skill Connect] have given me a more complete picture of what my jobseekers are doing and how I can help them more effectively. For example, I now know that many users were submitting a ‘blank’ job search which impacts their ability to find relevant roles. I took a bit of time to coach my learners on how to search effectively for roles and now feel confident the can apply this to their Indeed job search and beyond. - Skill Connect Partner Staff

Skill connect has allowed our interns and graduates to expand their reach and presence during their job searches in the market, leading to higher engagement and some great jobs [...] Indeed took the time and intentionality to work with Year Up staff and students to get a real sense of the job search experience and use that information to thoughtfully build this tool. - Morris W. AppleWhite, National Head of Corporate Engagement at Year Up

I liked that it autofilled the skills learned in [my program]. There might have been some skills I would have missed when adding myself. I wish I had this when I started looking for a job because this is very easy. It is productive…It is not confusing. It is something that anyone can do and like I say productive because I saw the jobs that I didn’t see before, I would go back and apply for those jobs. - Job Seeker
