What does Other roles available mean in my search?
The first list is the matches for your search, closest first. Under it, Other roles available is your normal recommended feed, shown so a narrow search does not end in an empty page.
The two lists on a search page
- Jobs matching your search
- The real matches, with the note Closest matches first. These are scored against the term you typed.
- Other roles available
- Your recommended feed, under the line Not matches for this search, but open to you now. It is a suggestion, not a result.
A search narrows hard. If only four jobs really match Backend Developer today, you see those four and then the second list, so there is somewhere to go next.
Get back to your normal feed
- Use Clear search
On desktop, Clear search sits right under the results heading.
- Or open Jobs again
Tap Jobs in the navigation, or open Jobs.
If something goes wrong
"Nothing matched that search."
WhyNo job title, skill or description matched your term.
FixTry a shorter or more standard designation, or a company name. The Other roles available list below is still worth a look.
The results look unrelated to what I typed
WhyYou may be reading the second list rather than the matches.
FixScroll up and check the heading. Anything under Other roles available is not a match for your search.
Related questions
Can I sort search results by salary or date?
No. Search results are ordered by how closely they match your term, and the feed is ordered by how well a job fits your profile. There is no sort control.
Does the search remember my last term?
The term stays in the web address, so a refresh keeps it. Your last few searches are also listed under Recent Searches.
