^^
* Job feeds are refreshed and shared with states daily. The previous day's file is eliminated and replaced with a new one -- ensuring job listings are current and reflect what is posted and advertised on corporate career sites and state workforce agency job banks.
^^
* All job openings are unduplicated, currently available, and - most importantly - are from vetted employers.
^^
* In an effort to avoid duplication and expired links, the NLx does not index third party sites or job boards. This provides better employment outcomes and user experience.</OtherInformation></Objective></Goal></StrategicPlanCore><AdministrativeInformation><StartDate/><EndDate/><PublicationDate>2024-12-31</PublicationDate><Source>https://www.naswa.org/national-labor-exchange/what-is-the-national-labor-exchange</Source><Submitter><GivenName>Owen</GivenName><Surname>Ambur</Surname><PhoneNumber/><EmailAddress>Owen.Ambur@verizon.net</EmailAddress></Submitter></AdministrativeInformation></PerformancePlanOrReport>
