The Jobs tab allows you to match job names with a department, so that when you assign a job to an employee, the matching department will be automatically set. This is important, because the department an employee belongs to normally determines the employee's security privileges.

If you are importing employee information using HR-XML (.hrx) files, the Jobs tab is where you map SpeedLine job names to the equivalent HR-XML job names.
