From a DOL News Release:

Secretary of Labor Hilda L.

As part of the announcement, Facebook officials debuted a “social jobs partnership” page that highlights available training programs, educational opportunities and job search resources, which can be accessed at http://www.facebook.com/socialjobs. Facebook also made a commitment to drive traffic to the page through targeted online public service announcements that will appear to users in geographic areas experiencing high unemployment.

In the coming months, public and private-sector partners who have committed to helping Americans find jobs through resources and technology will be added.
