Ohio Career Navigator Puts Resources in One Place

COLUMBUS, Ohio – The state has launched Ohio Career Navigator, a new tool on OhioMeansJobs.com designed as a one-stop shop for Ohioans to find resources that will help them obtain in-demand skills, advance their education and achieve their career goals. 

The Career Navigator puts resources from multiple state agencies in one place, making the process of finding relevant information faster and easier.

“Ohio offers a variety of resources for those on their career or education journey, and it may be difficult for them to navigate if they don’t know where to start,” Lt. Gov. Jon Husted said. “Through Career Navigator, accessing the information you need is more personalized and centrally located so you can determine the best pathway for you. Now that the tool has launched, we look forward to collecting feedback from users and further improving on the technology so that it can be an even more helpful resource to Ohioans.”

To get started, users will complete a survey that tailors personalized content and services to their specific needs. The user is then connected with comprehensive and up-to-date information from state and external sources.

“Ohio’s diverse economy means there are career opportunities to match anyone’s skills and interests,” said Matt Damschroder, Ohio Department of Job and Family Services director. “The Career Navigator is the newest among a wide variety of resources available at your local OhioMeansJobs center or OhioMeansJobs.com.”
