Very proud to say the new mycareer site launched today: http://mycareer.com.au. Its the next major site from the Fairfax Digital network to take on css layout as part of a redesign. The site gets hundreds of thousands of visitors a month and is one of Australia’s largest job ad websites.
Check it out, be good to hear any feedback/ideas for further improvement. as always with a large scale commercial project there are compromises made in some areas, but for the most part i’m pretty darn happy with the design.
CSS was a huge part of the redesign (which also overhauled some of the information architecture). All the developers were keen on the benefits and the business people love the agility of the design and the speed.
cheers,

Peter Ottery as some of you would know redesigned the SMH site. The first of its kind, huge Web Standards and CSS implementation in Australia (think that is right). However, Peter is no longer with Fairfax Digital but do drop him a line if you like his mycareer rendition in the new design, HTML and CSS. Well done Pete! Congratulations! hope you read this.
an honour to be featured on your fine site mr karmakar
i see your screengrab of the mycareer site is minus the flash ad/promo thing at the top of the page. you better install flash - thats where all the good stuff on the net is

Haha. Thanks Pete
Just fixed the thumbnail. Thanks for the heads up. All good now. Well done again and thanks for signing in.
It does look really clear and crisp. It’s impressive that behemoths like Fairfax are implementing standards-based web design.
Great site and great implementation. I think I’ll search for a new job now.
Come on down-under. You’d love it
GREAT IDEA!!!! I already love OZ so why not? Ready or not, here I come.
