Fás needs to work on its jobseeker site

IT is high time the Government took a look at the drastic shortage of resources available to the recently unemployed. Bitterly disappointed wouldn’t even begin to describe my reaction to the resources made available to jobseekers who log on to the Fás website. The initial home page of the site appears to be reasonably well laid out – but don’t be fooled.

To the trained eye of someone who uses similar portals on a daily basis, the “jobseekers” section of the website is incredibly confusing and difficult to navigate – a muddle of chaotic and disorganised links and logos.

To an individual who may not use such a portal on a daily basis, this section would scare the living daylights out of you all the way the nearest dole office.
