Also, you don’t get to run cover for jediwill83. If he had a personal negative experience, the readers would more than likely want the details about that.

My understandings of the website was the same as Esaias.
So, let me ask you, why would you think we would be interested?
Did you think that the whole five people who post here had interacted with this program? As far as running cover for the Jedi? That’s your perception. I was merely asking you some questions.

Should have answered this question. I like information and I like to share it. The website gives a lot of options for various job opportunities and links you to the source for further information. Just thought it was interesting.

I haven't seen a website this well organized giving a person a place to search out options for a new career if they hadn't thought about it. Choices are good.

No I have not gone through Ivankas plan...Im sure its yuge and bigly to the max...thing is...they arent doing so hot on the things they are already doing and no, I don't need my wonderful friend Benicasa to jump to my rescue...Im a big boy but this is a public forum so if you didnt want a public discussion maybe you should have messaged me instead of trying to play "gotcha".

When I have time to suspend my disbelief I will check it out...but honestly I hope I wont need to.

"They aren't doing so hot on the things they are already doing..."

When it comes to jobs, this administration has done very well. Much better than past administrations.

Obviously the govt is limited as to what it can do; however, there are some things which may be of assistance to those who are willing to put in the work.

I had a conversation with a client last year who was complaining about not finding a job. I spent a good deal of time going over free job assistance he could get. Creating a resume, mock interviews, skills assessments, training, etc. I set him up for a time to come in and do this. Did he show up? Nope. Spoke with him a month later and he was still complaining about not finding a job. I asked what he had done in the past month and he had stood in front of a home depot a few hours a day.

Point is the government can assist with certain things, like this website, but it's up to the people to put in the work.

It's a good website. I like how it shows there are options other than a 4yr degree. It emphasizes skills instead of degrees, which I believe is better.

It's another tool for those who want to work and are willing to go after it.

Funny, one critic of the website said it would only encourage those currently employed to look for a different job. Not sure why that's a bad thing.

Like Trump or hate him, he has done well with the economy. I personally believe this is all orchestrated by the socialist, left, and right to get Trump removed. Americas greed leaves people in need...

I agree on all points!
