Show them all. And the number of applicants. Tough job market still.

I had to show the jobs that I applied to through sites like Indeed, LinkedIn, etc. via Careerlink’s website.

There’s a form you’re required to fill out to remain eligible for benefits and it asks for the interviewer’s contact information.

So you can apply for any job, but it’s my understanding you still have to complete the general form on careerlink site.

DM me to discuss if you’d like.

We have a fantastic woman who works the desk at the local Career Link who would absolutely be able to answer this kind of question. So I'd suggest calling the closest one to you. Or going in and talking.

FYI, the law states that you must complete 2 applications and one work search activity per week(this includes searching jobs on indeed, Linkin etc), and register on the Career links site within 30 days.

You only submit that info if asked, which you'd do through the PA Unemployment portal where you file your weekly benefits claim. Normally they'll only ask for verification of your employment searches if you're seeking an extension.

Otherwise continue to file your weekly certification and make sure you're logged into whatever job search engine you're using so it's keeping track of your application history.

Career link is utterly useless, both as a job seeker and being an employer with positions to fill

They do their best but I never found them all that helpful. I feel like the commonwealth is making them as much enforcers of UC as they are employment counselors. I went there during the 2008 recession after just finishing college and the guy told me I was “unemployable” because I couldn’t do construction or any kind of hard, repetitive manual labor.

In the late 90’s/early 2000’s there were places around here that only did applications (paper) through careerlink. I guess they figured it was better than having people showing up in their offices. I guess now people figure most bigger places have a link right on the website. I haven’t used careerlink since 2008 but I don’t think I ever got a call from somewhere that I put the app in through them so I stopped using it.

I completely created a profile on career link and set it up on the jobs and what I was looking and that was it. However I did do my job searches in linked and indeed but I never had to notify the unemployment but I had did save emails and etc. incase they ever requested it

Hey, how about calling them to get an answer from them, or look up the question on their website.
