cool site. I wish it had better scroll restoration:

I scroll down a bunch, new results are loaded. I click into a job posting and click back, now I need to scroll down a bunch again to go back to where I was.

You can open postings in a new window or you can clientside cache the responses

Good points, I shall look into this! May also go with the good old pagination with numbers.

Can be good learning experience with client-side caching :)

Just don’t be like a recent organization’s job board that I had the misfortune of visiting:

To get to page 12, you have to:

Starting on page 1, you can see pages 1-5, so go to page 5. This will allow you to get to page 6. Go to page 6, where you can see pages 6-10, click page 10. Now you can click on page 11. Now you can see pages 11-15 and can finally get to page 12.

haha yeah thats quite annoying. For a quick fix I am opening the jobs in a new tab. Will then look into this further.

Just goto page 2 and add 1 in front of 2 in the url.

I wish. The URL had a bajillion characters with nothing resembling anything that straightforward.
