Job Seekers

Committed to Helping You

Arkansas Workforce Centers provide workforce readiness training, job search, academic enrichment and work experience to jobseekers linking them to employers through a statewide delivery system. The Workforce Centers throughout the state are designed to eliminate the need to visit multiple locations.

Enhancing Skills

The Workforce Center, along with workforce center partners, integrates a variety of workforce development programs into a single system, making the resources much more accessible and user-friendly to job hunters, as well as expanding services to employers.

Arkansas Workforce Centers are designed “by employers for employers” to find and train unskilled workers and help job hunters find new opportunities. When it all comes together, it’s a winning partnership for Arkansas!

Create a Jobseeker Account

Register as a “Jobseeker” with Arkansas JobLink for access to all the services available so you can find employment and employers can find YOU! You will be able to conduct job searches, build and post a résumé online, research career information, get the latest Labor Market Information, Industry and Occupational trends and receive email notifications on new job openings. Accounts are active at the time of registration.

Career Readiness Certificate

Employers are constantly seeking a competitive edge. Employers need employees who possess the foundational skills necessary that set them apart as “workplace ready.” As a jobseeker, an Arkansas Career Readiness Certificate (CRC) designates you as workplace ready.

Successful completion of ACT WorkKeys assessments in Applied Mathematics, Locating Information, and Reading for Information can lead to earning your CRC. This certificate demonstrates workplace readiness in possessing these basic foundational skills, which are the fundamental, portable skills that are necessary for conveying and receiving information critical to training and workplace success.

ABOUT ADWS

The focus of the Arkansas Division of Workforce Services is to provide individuals the tools they need to enhance and sustain their employability. And, through the education and skills training offered to jobseekers, employers are reducing hidden costs associated with lost production time and turnover rates by hiring qualified workers.

Products and services can be categorized into three main groups: Unemployment Insurance, Employment Assistance (Jobseeker services and Employer services), and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families. ADWS offers these services at Arkansas Workforce Centers located throughout the state.

ADWS continues to build effective partnerships with other organizations to better serve customers. Through these partnerships, ADWS and its partners are able to leverage each other’s core competencies and resources.

Because the Arkansas Division of Workforce Services is a state agency, it does not earn a profit and does not measure success by business growth and expansion. The agency is unique from other Arkansas state agencies in that it is 99 percent federally funded with taxpayer dollars.
