Job duties custom list

The Job Duties Custom List feature consists of three steps:

The user selects their current occupation through a keyword search.
The user selects one or more task statements from that occupation.
Related occupations are shown which have similar tasks.

This response provides occupations related to a user’s current occupation, which perform tasks similar to the selected tasks. Call the service with the O*NET-SOC code of the user’s current occupation, and a comma-separated list of the task IDs selected in the previous step.

Each occupation in the results includes three task lists: tasks closely related to the user’s selected tasks, tasks less related to the selected tasks, and the full list of the occupation’s tasks. Some of these lists may be empty.

Results are sorted by the number of closely related tasks; to change this, set the sort parameter to all_related, title, code, or zone. Results are divided into pages; the first 20 results are returned by default.
