Description
The DOT is now as convenient as your iPhone! Social Security professionals never need to worry about having a hearing or client meeting without this invaluable resource, including all of its companion publications. What users are saying: "Excellent app – works like a charm and worth every penny. I have Job Browser on all my computers, but now I have the DOT/SCO information in my pocket (on my iPhone). This means I can use it in meetings and many other places where I don’t have my computer." ~ David Camp (SSDB Attorney) Job Sleuth "is a great asset for Social Security Attorneys and Vocational Experts to use while interviewing clients in their office or at the hearing [...] It is a MUST have for a Social Security Disability Practitioner." ~ Ed P. (Vocational Consultant) FEATURES: - All 12,741 job codes in the DOT are present and accounted for, along with detailed explanations of each of their elements; - Every job includes the information from the DOT, SCO, MPSMS, Work Fields, Aptitudes, and Temperaments and is presented in an easily accessible manner (over 65 fields in each code); - Airprint compatibility allows you to print any job's complete information or the results from your searches. - Email all of the job's information or searches to yourself or anyone else for later review or reference. - A completely local database means you don't ever have to worry about losing signal or not having access to wi-fi. BENEFITS: - Never worry about lugging around two huge volumes to hearings and meetings. - Title Search, Code Search, Multi-Code Search, Advanced Search, Transferability Search, and GOE browser make finding the right job(s) a breeze, much faster than could have been possible with the physical volumes. - Less than 1/4 the price of the physical volumes, and 1/8 the price of many PC applications with similar features. *tab bar icons created by icons8
What's New

User Reviews
I use this to get information off my phone handy. It works really well for that.
I really love this app! One suggestion, when making a skill transfer it would be helpful the option to sort the search by industry.
Best product ever. Helps me out tons in hearings and preparation.
Fabulous app! I tell all my Vocational Rehab colleagues about this simple yet powerful tool. I use it several times a week... One suggestion (not criticism): allow search function to use partial spelling of jobs in order to find them among 12,761 jobs listed in the DOT IN MY POCKET... keep up the good work as there was just another update announced!
Great quick and advanced search features
I had to look up the SCO for a barber. The Social Security Administration said that my client could still work as a barber, although they say that he has “limited”fingering and handling. The SCO says the barber position requires Constant handling and Frequent fingering. I think we win, based on my 30 seconds on Job Sleuth. It just paid for itself.
Spectacularly put together. Mr. Ellis was definitely thinking when he created this fabulous app it answers all your questions efficiently and quickly that you might have when analyzing and arguing the vocational issues!
Pretty easy to use

I love the format of this app. I have many other vocational resources including, e.g.Job Browser Pro and an original DOT from 1991. This app will allow me to more quickly access information I need during hearings. I should have purchased this app years ago when it was launched. Thank you, Ellis!
