Stay on track

Stay on track with your job search and reporting for unemployment benefits.

Job search can be discouraging and take longer than you plan for, so it’s important to look for ways to stay on track to get your next job. Consider meeting regularly with a job search partner or joining a job club at an AJC to network, get regular check-ins, support, and job leads.

It’s also important to remember to stay on track with any unemployment program requirements. Often you need to document your activities and may need to schedule check-ins.

To do: Join a job club to network, get regular check-ins, support, and job leads. Contact nearby AJCs for job club information. And be sure to revisit your state’s UI website to confirm program requirements, document your activities correctly, and follow up on any required calls and in-person visits.
