Sorting Jobs
Jobs can now be sorted by job date (i.e., those jobs that will occur soonest by date, followed by jobs that will occur later, in that descending order), or by post date (i.e., jobs most recently created, followed by older jobs, in that descending order).
The system automatically sorts by "Job" (i.e., job date) as the default, but you can alternate this sorting option via the Jobs page. From here, select the Job tab (located to the far right, beside "Available" and "Scheduled"). Once selected, a pop-up will appear where you can choose Job Date or Post Date.
Selection of the Post Date will cause the tab name and results to change from "Job" to "Post." You can repeat this selection process to revert the sorting back to Job Date, as needed.
Important Notes
- The sort function is available for both Available and Scheduled jobs, and each tab remains independent of the other. (Note examples of the "Available" tab above and "Scheduled" tab below.)
- Your sorting selection will remain until you log out. The system then returns the sort option to the default "Job" (i.e., job date) sorting method.
Filtering Jobs
Job filters allow you to further define available and scheduled jobs by post date, job date, employee name, school name, and shift type. You can determine your filters by going to the Jobs page and selecting either the "Available" or "Scheduled" tab, based on your desired results. From here, select the Filters option in the top right corner of the page.

- When filters are applied to a job, a footer will appear with each filter type listed as a breadcrumb. This allows each filter to be dismissed individually. This footer will also contain the Filter icon. You can select this Filter icon to ignore the filters and return all jobs to the list.
