It should be noted that America's Job Bank attributes itself to the efforts of the states to maximize the exposure of job openings to job applicants. Internet access at various public places including welfare and public employment offices, libraries, schools, and kiosks will provide opportunities for the unemployed to connect with job openings through these kinds of tools. However, America's Job Bank won't provide training, skills, or the education necessary to meet job requirements. The easier it is to access job opportunities, the better it is for those seeking jobs. The listings will help those who are ready to work, but moving many welfare recipients off the roles will require more than just pointing them to job openings.
Welfare reform has time limits on benefits, and various restrictions on eligibility.
