Suggested Improvement - Job Board

[christya]

I would find it helpful to be able to mark a job I have reviewed.

While scrolling, I find that I am clicking on jobs over and over again. I waste time doing this, going in and out of job descriptions, to find out that I have already read it.

Could we get an option to mark or note the job, for our own information, as "READ" or "DISMISSED" ?

This would not replace the "thumbs down" icon for when I am dismissing a job.

Thank you!

Hi Christy,

Once you click on a job to read it, the title link should turn to gray upon the next view, whereas those that you haven't should remain in black. It is a subtle change, but are you not seeing this?

Best regards,

I am seeing that in the "expanded" view of jobs. But in the "collapsed" view, it does not change the title to grey.

I will use the Expanded View to search!

You can - look to the top right for the "thumbs down" click it and it will collapse the job - you can give a reason you are not interested and its not shared with the client.

I am familiar with that option, thank you!

The best solution was to change the layout of the view I was using - Now, I can see that if I have read through an ad, it is apparent that I do not have to click back into it.

Hi!

I have a suggestion, could you please add another category in thumbs down, like too many / too little hours required?

I am looking for extra work that would take less than 10 h / week, so I would be able to choose this reason so you can get to know better your users. 

Thanks!

Hi Lucia,

Thanks for sharing your feedback with us! I'll be sure to pass it on to our product team.

Thank you.

The jobs you view get marked with a grey background, while the ones you don't view remain with a white background.

I see that now also! Thank you.

I solved the issue by using "expanded view" as opposed to "compact" or collapsed view
