Pennsylvania CareerZone is modeled after another successful and established career exploration web site, New York CareerZone. Developed by the Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry, Pennsylvania CareerZone is ideal for job seekers, educators, and counselors who will benefit from a wealth of information on 900 occupations. These jobs are amassed from the Occupational Information Network (O*Net) database.

Visitors to the site can utilize assessment tools to help them map out a career plan that will best meet their career goals. They can work through the Interest Profiler, Work Importance Profiler, and Assess Yourself self-exploration exercise to determine their primary and secondary interests and develop a career theme.

Pennsylvania CareerZone features comprehensive information on 900 occupations including state specific wages, worker attributes, job characteristics, and more. The site also gives users access to 300 career videos that provide snap shots of the featured occupation. Job openings on America’s Job Exchange are easily accessible within each occupations profile.
