Don't know what exactly you are trying to do but creating user variables using User Variable stage in a sequence job can help you.

A Sequence (no 'r') job can pass a parameter defined in it to both jobs. Do you mean pass a value created in one job to another? If so, one way would be via USERSTATUS, search the forums here for the 'how'.

Another way would be to land it and have a RoutineActivity or ExecuteCommand stage pick up the value and supply it to the downstream job as a parameter. Or the 'initial value' of a stage variable could read the landed data if it didn't need to be passed in as a job parameter.
