    Jobserve - testing? what's that?

    Careful how you use Jobserve from today - a new search 'enhancement' means that all your saved searches will need checking (e.g. Job Type of 'contract' has been changed to 'any') and when you save Order By as 'Date' it resets to 'Best Match'.

    Sigh

    Jobserve (the interface)'s been sh1t since the last revamp.

    It never remembers that you want to sort by date and always forces Best Match (how the **** can you have a best match on one word?) and the box on the RHS follows you down the page as you scroll down FFS.

        I love the way I can type in 'Business Analyst' as a search term and it will come back with : "Did you mean 'Business Analyst' ?

        "See?"

          You mean it asks you the same question twice in quick succession? and you're a BA? Pot calling the kettle black I think.

            Ad it recommends replacing "project manager" with "project manager" ... which comes back with fewer results.
            Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

              Typical for a PM then! - even though the BA has to ask the same question twice

                I think what is happening here is that when you type in Business Analyst and it says:

                A suggested alternative is "Business Analyst" click here.

                it is just offering to search for the phrase not just the two words.

                  Not so with the "project manager" and "project manager" - when it offers to change from "project manager" to "project manager" it does not give the same results as a manual search for the words "project" + "manager" or the phrase '"project manager"' (Pythonesque syntax) / """project manager""".

                    . . . and what's with the hundreds of jobs that appear around 02:00 each morning now?
