We are excited to share recent updates to the career portal, driven by valuable feedback from hiring teams and candidates. We've introduced several key enhancements specifically designed to elevate the user experience. 

The updates are designed to make job postings easier to navigate, improve readability, and support a more intuitive experience for candidates exploring opportunities at the University of Alberta.

Key enhancements include:

  • A refreshed landing page with a new header block and increased font size.
  • Updated branding with the addition of a customizable tagline.
  • User friendly search experience, with filters now located on the left-hand side of the page.
  • A second “Apply Now” button added near the top of job postings for ease of applying.
  • Clearer section headings, including “About the Job” and “About University of Alberta.”
  • Refreshed Job Posting template with content configured to highlight the Job and Team, and the University of Alberta.

These changes are part of the ongoing commitment to continuous improvement and support a more efficient, accessible, and candidate-friendly recruitment process. Feedback will continue to inform future enhancements to the career portal.
