Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Launches “CareerInfo” App with Material From the Occupational Outlook Handbook
From BLS:
BLS has partnered with the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of the Chief Information Officer to develop the CareerInfo app that is now available from the Apple App Store and Google Play.
CareerInfo presents information from the Occupational Outlook Handbook, the most popular BLS resource for career information.
The CareerInfo app helps you find data and information about employment, pay, job outlook, how to become one, and more for hundreds of detailed occupations. You can browse by occupational groups and titles or search by occupation or keywords. Within occupational groups, the app allows you to sort by occupation title, projected growth, and typical education or median pay.
Future updates will add features that will let you personalize the app by filtering searches and by “liking,” saving, viewing, and comparing favorites.
