Looking for work on Local Jobs

When you need work nearby, Local Jobs gives you a few simple paths: browse open jobs, post that you’re available, or show up as Available for hire on your Page. A living Page with photos and a clear headline usually beats a paper resume for same-week work.

Ways to get found

Path Best when
Browse Jobs / Help Wanted You want to reply to hirers this week
Looking for work / resumes You want a marketplace post hirers can open
Available for hire You want an ongoing presence on Jobs in your city
Create a free Page You’re new and need a place for messages and contact

Create a free Page

  1. Go to Sign up and create your FWDLink Page.
  2. Add a photo, short bio, and contact options you’re comfortable sharing.
  3. Set your city under Local / Page settings so neighbors can find you.

Your Page is your home base for messages — listings alone don’t replace it.

Post that you’re available

  1. Open Local for your city → Post, with category Jobs.
  2. Choose a looking-for-work / resumes style option when the form offers it (or write a clear “looking for work” title).
  3. Say what you can do, when you’re free, and your city or neighborhood.
  4. Publish. Hirers browsing Jobs or Help Wanted can open your post and message you.

Available for hire (ongoing)

For an ongoing “hire me” signal without a one-off post, turn on Available for hire in Page settings. You can use a post and the Page setting together.
