ESDS Job Posting in Mississippi
ESDS job posting in Mississippi means listing your openings with the Mississippi Department of Employment Security (MDES) through its online employment services system, backed by WIN Job Centers across the state. VEVRAA requires covered federal contractors to list suitable Mississippi openings there so protected veterans get priority referral. dstribute sends your Mississippi openings from your ATS to the Mississippi ESDS and keeps a dated record of each listing. Mississippi is one of the states where this duty applies to covered federal contractors and subcontractors with a worksite in the state. Most contractors know the listing duty exists. The trouble is doing it every time. Each suitable Mississippi opening needs to reach the state employment service, the details need to match what the state asks for, and the timing needs to be documented.
Spreadsheets and reminders help, but they depend on people remembering a separate task for every requisition. When hiring picks up, that task is the first to slip, and a missing record is hard to rebuild later. A clean process matters more than good intentions. dstribute connects to the ATS your team already uses, so there is no new system for recruiters to learn. When a suitable Mississippi opening is created, dstribute sends it to the Mississippi employment service automatically, applies the details the state asks for, and keeps a dated record of each listing for your audit file. If OFCCP asks how you meet the listing duty, you can show what was listed, where, and when. Fill in the form beside this text and the dstribute team will show you how Mississippi listing works with your ATS.

Mississippi ESDS Listings: Registration and Local Support
ESDS stands for employment service delivery system. Under VEVRAA, it is the public employment service that federal contractors list their openings with so protected veterans can receive priority referral. The listing goes to the system that serves the location of the job. In Mississippi, that is the job database run by MDES, with local support from WIN Job Centers. This page focuses on the setup steps and support options Mississippi contractors use. For the job centers themselves, see our page on OFCCP job posting to WIN Job Center Mississippi. New to the term? Start with What Is ESDS?
Who Runs the Mississippi ESDS
MDES offers employers free job posting in its online database, which it calls MDES Online Employment Services. WIN Job Centers are the agency’s local offices, and their staff help employers with hiring needs and refer applicants to open positions.
Register with MDES First
MDES asks employers to register with the agency before it can help post job openings in its database. After registration, you sign on to the online system with a username and password to enter job orders. Keep those credentials with a named owner on your team, so listings do not stall when one recruiter leaves.
Getting Help with Job Orders
MDES lists a phone line for help with the job order process, 601-493-9427, and staff at WIN Job Centers also assist employers. Use these contacts if an account issue keeps a Mississippi listing from going out on time.
Keep the Federal Rule Separate from State Programs
The MDES employer site also covers state programs, such as employment plans under the Mississippi First Act for public works contracts. Those are state requirements with their own rules. Meeting one does not show that you met the VEVRAA listing rule, so track the two separately.
Which Mississippi Openings Must Be Listed
The listing requirement covers all employment openings except executive and senior management roles, positions filled from within the contractor’s own workforce, and positions lasting three days or less. The listing should reach the Mississippi system no later than the job reaches any other recruiting source. VEVRAA also expects you to tell the ESDS that you are a federal contractor, name the hiring official for each establishment, and ask for priority referral of protected veterans. Our page on when ESDS is required walks through each part of the rule.
Documenting Mississippi ESDS Listings
During a compliance evaluation, OFCCP can compare the openings at a Mississippi establishment with the listings that reached the state system. dstribute logs each listing with the position, the Mississippi location, and the date it was sent, so you can show what was listed and when. Our audit support recordkeeping and ESDS compliance checklist show how to review that file before an evaluation.
How dstribute Automates ESDS Job Posting in Mississippi
dstribute connects to the ATS your recruiters already use, including Workday, iCIMS, and Greenhouse. When a Mississippi opening is published, dstribute sends it to the Mississippi ESDS, applies your approved EEO and VEVRAA language, and records the result.
