WBS – Web Based Job Search Support is an international project which includes the creation of a social website for people looking for work. The countries involved are: Italy, Spain, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Poland and Bulgaria. The project is co-financed by the European Commission within the Education and Culture programme. Partner countries work together on the project; together they are preparing, testing, and implementing the WBS methodology. Each country has its own version of the website and the partnership is currently collecting feedback from users on the beta version of the sites.
Career guidance and employment services can be successfully implemented "at a distance" by using the Internet.
It is common to use the Internet to look for career and labour market information; it is less frequent to use computer activities for these issues.
The greatest benefit for career guidance can come from Web 2.0 social websites concerning career development and job searching.
