Comment on Show HN: We tried to build a job board that isn't awful

Comments

A search in the dropdowns would go a long way. "AI field" has 700+ entries, and aren't in alphabetical order.

Excellent point - they are sorted by frequency they appear in the data. We have search boxes in the keyword selectors (funding stage, location, etc) but not in tags where arguably it's most useful. Will work this into an upcoming release. Many thanks!

The HTML <select> element already has built-in search functionality, in most browsers. Why don't you just use HTML? (I can't provide detailed feedback because of your login-wall: do you have a version with fake data that I could poke around at? You should probably look at getting an accessibility expert involved.)

True! We use a custom element that hides most options by default but this is definitely something we will consider. Thank you for your feedback
