Best Link Structure For Recruiting(jobs) Site.

Posted by Anonymous on 3/11/2011 at 3:56 AM ET 500 Points
Hello,
I am start working with one website that allows companies to post jobs on it. So I am start thinking about the best way to structure the data on it.
At the moment I really like structure of google jobs section here https://www.google.com/intl/en/jobs/uslocations/mountain-view/adsales/am/ac...

Kinda like %Jobs(or any other keyword)% › %Country% › %City% › %Job category%› %Job Name%

So what do you think about this site structure from the SEO point of view? Because I really want to implement strong internal linking strategy in this proejct.

    For SEO, it would depend on the focus of your site. Do you have a geographic focus? If so, it might be good to have geography towards the top. Do you want to focus on the job titles? If so, have titles as one of the primary things.

    It will be website that will be focused on job posting in only one Europe country. So I think that the jobs primary need to be sorted by cities right ?

    If it's only for one country, then ensure the city + country name are always shown together. That'll help SEO (for example, search for "jobs in berlin germany".

    The order you're showing assumes that people are looking for a job in a specific city, rather than focusing on what the job is ("show me all jobs for tech support") or starting salary ("show me all jobs that pay over ....").
