A national clearance program, designed to make available out-of-town job openings to applicants registered with Jewish vocational service agencies in nineteen major Jewish communities in the United States and Canada, was announced today by the Jewish Occupational Council, national association of JVS agencies.
Under the plan, the nineteen agencies have agreed to keep each other informed on the availability of jobs in their respective communities which cannot be filled by local residents and for which employers are willing to consider persons from another community.
