search_jobsSearch live jobs on the 20 Locate Jobs Network job boards: Diversity Careers, Healthcare Jobs for Veterans, Nature Jobs, University Fundraising Jobs, Fiber Optic Jobs, Certified Medical Assistant Jobs, Forklift Jobs, HR Analyst Jobs, The Trades Jobs, IT Jobs, Optometry Jobs, Dentist Jobs, Funeral Service Jobs, Chiropractor Jobs, Veterinarian Jobs, SLP Jobs, Diversity Higher Education Jobs, Minority Finance Jobs, Bioinformatics Jobs, and Minority Jobs. Search by role or skill, by place (a city and state, a state, or a ZIP code, which searches its whole state), or for remote jobs. Returns 5 to 10 current jobs with title, employer, location, posted date, and a link to the job page on the board that lists it, plus a link to see more. It only reads job listings: it cannot apply for a job, post a job, or save a search.unemployment_answersA checked answer about unemployment benefits for a U.S. state, covering Alabama, Arizona, Idaho, Indiana, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, and Utah. Give a state (a name or 2-letter code) and either a topic or the person's own question; the tool picks the topic from the question when none is given. For a state we do not cover yet, it names the federal page that finds that state's own unemployment office instead of guessing at a figure. It only reads a checked guide: it cannot file a claim, check a claim's status, or change anyone's benefits.Paste either block (or both) into your client config, e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. We only show a config when the install command is confirmed.
