CareerOneStop
What it is
CareerOneStop is a free suite of websites for exploring careers, finding training, and searching for jobs. Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration, it serves job seekers, students, career planners, businesses, and economic developers. Its Interest Assessment, Skills Matcher, and Work Values Matcher provide career matches. Occupation Profiles cover more than 900 careers, with details such as job outlook, typical wages, education, and experience. Job Finder searches by job and location and includes a remote-work filter. Users can view full job postings on CareerOneStop without an account, then follow a link to an employer website or state job bank to apply. Accounts can save assessment results and job searches. Training tools include finders for local programs, certifications, scholarships, licenses, and professional associations. Reports can be downloaded as Excel, PDF, Word, or RTF files, emailed, or printed. CareerOneStop also offers Web APIs for adding career, employment, and education data to other sites. API requests require a bearer token in the Authorization header, and the site describes API data as open under the U.S. Department of Labor’s Open Data Policy. API details may change over time, so users are advised to review the documentation regularly.
