👍 Position interactions
Project: 🔎 Position Discovery Type: 🚀 Feature User: 💁🏻♀️ People
Key changes
Navigating through positions is now much smoother and more interactive.
- Arrows to navigate between positions
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Swipe on mobile
Why?
Previously, navigating through positions was not interactive and required too many clicks. The options to hide or save a position were not obvious meaning many users did not know these features were available.
What?
Here’s what this release includes:
Renaming:
- Hide icon: now becomes “Not right” (thumbs down).
- Save icon: now becomes “Like” (thumbs up).
- “Saved” page: renamed “Liked”.
- “Hidden” page: renamed “Not right”.
Navigation:
- Next & previous arrows: Click the arrows to move between positions.
- Keyboard shortcuts: Use

What’s next?
We’re gathering feedback from users to understand how we can improve the interactions. From feedback so far, we know that the most important next step is to add onboarding, so that users understand the purpose of the interactions and that keyboard shortcuts are available.
In the longer-term, we hope to use data from which positions a user is interacting with to improve the relevancy of their results.
