Jobfinder is a job board website template for job portals, recruitment agencies and company career sites, built on Bootstrap 5 with a clean, minimal design. The layout is responsive and mobile-ready and works in all popular web browsers. It comes with seven pages: home, categories, job details, post a job, blog, about and contact.

The home page has a full-screen hero with a working job search by keyword and location, a grid of popular categories, a list of recent jobs, a featured-jobs slider, a video and testimonial section, a call-to-action band and a blog slider. The inner pages add a candidate categories page, a job detail page with a FAQ, an employer form for posting a new job, a paged blog, a team section and a contact page with a working contact form.

What’s new in 3.0

• Bootstrap 5.3.8 (the earlier release used Bootstrap 4.1.3 and jQuery), compiled from Sass together with the theme, and plain JavaScript with no jQuery. Swiper 14 replaces Owl Carousel on the featured-jobs and blog sliders, a keyboard-operable dialog replaces the old off-canvas menu and video popup, and a small built-in module replaces AOS. npm run build (Dart Sass and esbuild) compiles one minified stylesheet and one script.
• Lighter pages: all seven pages together went from 18.6 MB and 244 requests to 4.1 MB and 150 requests, and the download from 3.2 MB to 3.0 MB. Every photo has an AVIF version with the JPEG as the fallback, real dimensions and lazy loading below the hero, and unused plugins such as jQuery UI, Slick, a countdown, a date picker and MediaElement are gone.
• No third-party requests: Work Sans is self-hosted, the icon fonts are replaced by Lucide SVG icons and a small social-logo subset (the Twitter bird is now the X logo), the video is a stock clip that loads from YouTube’s privacy-enhanced player only after a click, and a Google Analytics 4 snippet stays commented out until you add your own ID. Before, every page loaded web fonts, a stylesheet and a Maps script from other hosts.
• Working search and forms: the home page search filters the job list by keyword and location, shows a result count and an empty state with a reset button, and the category tiles and job-type links use it; the blog is paged. The contact and post-a-job forms send through php/send-email.php with visible labels, validation, a spam trap and an in-page message. Before, neither form had an action and most fields had no name, so nothing could be sent.
• Accessibility: a skip link and a main landmark on every page, one h1 per page, a real menu button, a mobile menu that keeps keyboard focus inside and closes with Esc, submenus that open from the keyboard, FAQ toggles that are real buttons, visible focus rings and text and button colours that pass 4.5:1 contrast (the brand green is a little deeper).
• Fixed: the placeholder menu entries and the dead links that pointed nowhere now open real pages, the job type badges and white labels are readable, and the hero photos have separate phone crops so they do not load oversized images on small screens.
• Demo content: fictional companies, people and quotes replace the placeholder text, and every photo is a licensed Unsplash photo; the company logos are original SVG marks.
