From the "check against delivery" advance text of A team effort – role of employers in improving welfare outcomes, a speech by Mark Hoban, Minister for Employment. Originally given at Reform Research Trust - Major Policy Conference, Association of British Insurers.
"We are part way through a programme to modernise and reform the support we offer to the unemployed. Last December, we launched an online dating agency for jobseekers and employers called Universal Jobmatch.* signing up guarantees many an interesting interaction with one of Mark's oh so friendly "advisers" and coming soon to further "spice things up" The Universal Credit Claimant Commitment!
"Using state of the art technology, we have made it easier for employers to search for the best qualified candidate for a job and we will help jobseekers search and apply for a much wider range of jobs. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and as easily from your own home as from the job centre.
"Universal Jobmatch can be accessed through Gov.UK. To date there are over 2.4 million registered job seekers and 400,000 employers using the new matching service. Try it and it’s free."
