Important Note:

Job and bid posting descriptions may include XML code when copied and pasted. This code must be removed in the code view for the front-end jobs module to display correctly. We recommend typing directly into the editor instead of copying and pasting from another source. For help cleaning up code, see the Remove Rich Text Formatting article.
