Is an auditor required to call an employer to confirm whether or not a work search contact was made when the claimants information does not meet the states requirements?
• The claimant advises that the contact was made by telephone. Telephone contacts are not considered work search contacts, and claimants are advised of this when filing claims. • The claimant advises that he spoke with a neighbor who works for XYZ Corporation. The neighbor says the company is not hiring and the neighbor does not have hiring authority or any role in the hiring process. • The claimant advises that XYZ Corporation posts a list of available jobs every week. During the KW the claimant went to the company, reviewed the list at the company, decided he wasnt interested in any of the posted jobs, and left without speaking to anyone in the company. • The claimant advises he spoke with personnel staff at XYZ Corporation and was instructed to complete an application. He chose not to do so.
