Jobseeker Engagement Journey

1. Jumpstart your Application
Jobseekers sign up for an account in this portal and complete their profile.

2. Job Readiness Interview
During this interview set and scheduled by PIN, jobseekers share about their experiences, skills, and preferences, as well as support and accommodations needed as a Person with Disability. Gathered information will be used to facilitate a job match. This is also referred to as Career Readiness Assessment (CRA).

3. Job Match
PIN will look for a potential job match. A job match depends on (1) the jobseeker’s skills and preferred work conditions, and (2) the availability of job opportunities. Job matching is the process of matching a jobseeker’s skills and abilities to the requirements of a job opportunity.

4. Job Opportunity Endorsement
Once a job match has been identified, PIN will reach the jobseeker to confirm if they are willing to be referred for the job opportunity. Job opportunity endorsement is the process where your info and resume is forwarded to a partner company for your identified job match. If interested, PIN will forward his/her resume to its partner company/ies.

5. Justify why you should be hired
Upon the company’s review and screening of all their applicants, they may invite the jobseeker to a company interview. This is the jobseeker’s chance to present himself/herself as the candidate to be hired.

Access-to-Work Model
In the Access to Work Model: The orange icons refer to PIN’s engagement with jobseekers. The blue icons refer to PIN’s engagement with employers. The gray icons are activities where PIN engages with both employer and jobseeker.
The photo shows a flow chart of the access to work activities of PIN in its work with jobseekers (on the upper left) and employers (on the lower left). This intersects at the middle which shows the collaborative process of PIN with both employers and jobseekers (right section of the photo) to achieve improved access to work opportunities.
The icons at the upper left indicate the activities conducted with jobseekers which are “career readiness assessment”, “prepare to work”, and “train to work” consecutively. The icons at the lower left indicate the activities conducted with employers which are “partnership building”, “preparing the workplace”, and “worksite walkthrough” consecutively. These upper and lower icons meet at the middle which indicate working with both jobseekers and employers on these activities which are “job matching”, “employment interviews”, “disability sensitivity training”, and “transition support visits” consecutively.
