Universal JObmatch

When will we get directed to an actual domain or webaddress though?

My son is on JSA and he has all the info on the new service.
It is being run by Adzuna and differs from UJM in that the advisors cannot (at the moment) access your account.
You cannot use it to keep a record of your jobsearch activities either (at the moment).


So what the DWP has done is to replace a website which is quite useful with one that is no use whatsoever.

It's finally live and it seems to be a backward step from UJM. The ability to record your job search is one of the functions that's gone in the change from UJM to FAJ, and it was just about the only useful function on UJM. On the home page it states 'use it to discuss your work search activity if you're claiming Universal Credit or Jobseeker's Allowance, but I can find nowhere to actually do so!

Probably because of new EU GDPR data protection & privacy law.
