Redesigned homepage launched

ChurchJobs.net has launched a redesigned homepage today. We've given the site a bit of a paint job, but beyond that our goal is to make using our site as simple and straight forward as possible. Our philosophy has been to focus on giving churches and candidates the best chance to connect, without distractions. For example, although we do have advertising on the site, we don't bombard our users with ads. We keep our ads out of the way and to a minimum. And by the way, we never use popups.

You'll notice a new keyword/job type search right on the front page. We also still have an advanced search page for those users who want a more detailed search. We've made the top menu bar a little taller, and put more options in each menu.

If you miss the old homepage don't worry, we kept it here. If you prefer the old homepage simply bookmark it and keep using it.

We've also launched a couple of new features in the last 2 weeks.

1. Gold Star listings now have the ability to screen applicants by requiring a certain level of education, and years of experience.

2. Gold Star listings now have the ability to choose a secondary job category for job listings.

3. We launched a new mobile site with search. Check it out at m.churchjobs.net on your mobile phone.

ChurchJobs.net has been growing consistently and we'd like to thank all of our users for making that happen. Traffic is up, and people are finding the site valuable in their search. If you have any suggestions for new features please let us know. We're constantly striving to improve ChurchJobs.net and welcome suggestions from our users.
