Currently, this app is available for use only in the USA.
“We are constantly innovating and using cutting-edge technology-based solutions that simplify the candidate’s job search. There are over 1 billion Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant-enabled devices; this prompted us to think creatively about how we can utilize conversational voice interface to optimize our business goals,” says Taj Haslani, Founder of ApTask.

Users will also be able to say, “Alexa, enable Jobs Near Me” to enable the skill. To use the Alexa skill, just say “Alexa, open Jobs Near Me” once the app is enabled.
The "Jobs Near Me" Google Assistant Action skill can be accessed on any Assistant-enabled devices, such as Google Home Mini, Google Home, Google Home Hub, Google Nest Hub Max, including mobile phones or laptops with Google Assistant enabled. Google Assistant users can say “Hey Google / OK Google, talk to Jobs Near Me” to enable the app.
