    I'm not sure what the issue is. Nothing is changing as to the content or usage. All we're doing is shuffling Careers from it's own site to the Jobs tab. Is it the fact that it won't be on Server Fault the issue? Commented Dec 16, 2015 at 22:08

    Regarding sorting... This seems to work pretty well. Commented Dec 16, 2015 at 22:11

    @Juice : yes it is. Sure, it will end the idea of putting sysadmin jobs for companies that don’t hire developers. Commented Dec 16, 2015 at 22:12

    @Shog9 : We're still a long, long way away from that, but I'd hope this Stack Overflow integration is the first step along that road.. I would say a road to narrow the scope in practice. If it was really about deserving a wilder audience, you would made careers more detached from serverfault in favor of the whole network. Commented Dec 16, 2015 at 22:28

    I wrote an answer to expand on that thought a bit, @user2284570. The "separate site" idea kinda worked against us; it just made it equally difficult to access the site from anywhere. Also, let's just leave this discussion here; SF isn't the only site that's affected by this, so it's worth discussing it once for everyone. Commented Dec 16, 2015 at 22:31
  • @Shog9 : The "separate site" idea kinda worked against us mainly because it was linked to stackoverflow.com. Commented Dec 16, 2015 at 22:35

    No, mainly because it was actually a separate site. We could have an integrated service specific to SO, SF, SU, Math, and they'd all be less annoying than having to create yet another profile on yet another site. Commented Dec 16, 2015 at 22:41

    Yeah... That crap's going away too. No more perpetual beta. Commented Dec 17, 2015 at 0:54

    @user2284570 That screenshot is crazy old. We rebranded from Careers 2.0 months ago. Commented Dec 17, 2015 at 15:24
  • I've started a discussion on MSO, because it seems MSO is now the official place to discuss Careers/Jobs issues. Commented Dec 27, 2015 at 14:27
  • @Massimo yes, with a more biased dev point of vue. Commented Dec 27, 2015 at 20:20
  • @user2284570 That's exactly why I asked the question there, to bring a syadmin POV into the discussion; but the fact remains, discussions about Careers/Jobs are being moved to MSO, so that's the place to talk about it now. Commented Dec 27, 2015 at 20:28

    No need in useless edits to bump. The bounty is really enough. Commented Jan 3, 2016 at 15:29
