I need to help out my dad with this wat does this mean.?

You must register for work by placing your job/education resume on the Michigan Talent Bank (MTB) Internet Website at least two to three business days before your first call to Michigan's Automated Response Voice Interactive Network (MARVIN). Michigan Talent Bank applications may be completed on-line at www.michworks.org. Free access to the Internet is available at any Michigan Works! Agency, MWA, service center. Call 1-800-285-WORK to be connected with the MWA nearest you.

They want his resume online before they will try and match him with a job. It's like Monster.com, I think, but just for Michigan.

If he did not request to be on this service, I would just ignore it. But if he did want to be part of this service he should go to the website and fill out the application/resume.

You don't say what your dad's situation is, but judging from this information, I'd guess he is unemployed and trying to get benefits. To do so, he has to show he is actively trying to get work but unable to. Some states require you to post a resume on-line as a way of looking for work.

The best thing for you to do is call the 800 number and hang on until you get a real person on the line to answer your questions. With all the layoffs in the auto industry, I'll bet they are pretty swamped with applications and this is probably their attempt to handle that situation.

Good luck!

It is big government at it's worst, always in our face, making processes more complicated than it should be, and "oh so impersonal."

Big brother is watching! How scary is that!

What part do you need help with? Do what is says...Register and then wait to call. They are probably telling you to wait those days so their system will pick your dads registration up and put it into their system.

I think it means that he has to either call or go online to look for a job at that place.
