Work Search Requirements

Maryland Work Registration Program

When filing for unemployment, you need to fulfill your work search requirements. You do this at the UI Work Search site. Here, you create a profile that allows you to search for work according to your skills and to be searched for by potential employers.

Maryland unemployment work search requirements state that you must make two work contacts every week to maintain your unemployment benefits. You can use the UI Work Search site to meet these criteria.

What You Need for Work Registration

When following your work registration requirement, you need personal information, your educational history, and past career contacts. It's also not a bad idea to have several personal references as well. Think of work registration as filling out an online resume. It will follow a similar format and purpose.

With your work registration log, you need to make at least two job contacts a week, including the following information in each log entry:

• Contact date
• Information (address, telephone number, e-mail, etc.)
• Type of contact (in-person, e-mail, etc.)
• Who you contacted
• Type of work involved
• If you applied and how
• Results of the application
