in larger employment offices there are separate counters by type of work ie for those seeking technical work or whitecollar jobs in cases where the skills of the jobseeker do not match with the skills required by the employer the pes officer makes an attempt to negotiate the desired skills and inform employers of other jobseeker attributes eg their eagerness and motivation to work at times when no suitable match can be made the officer will refer the jobseeker to alternative jobs andor make direct contact with the employer to develop a new job offer that is closer to the skill profile of an applicant
