694878 - /job /jobs need to redirect to /careers on Mozilla.org

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Bret Reckard]

Our website does not automatically redirect /jobs to the list of
available positions but currently it goes to a 404 page.

Since /jobs is typically where a lot of folks look for jobs at a
company (since no one has time to wade through crappy top level
navigation on a home page), we should be sure to redirect that to
/careers (probably /job as well while we're at it).

Summary:

On Mozilla.com/org:
/career redirect to /careers
/job redirect to /careers
/jobs redirect to /careers

Thanks!
Bret

Good suggestion, Bret. Over to the websites team, can you make it happen, please?

Thanks for filing the bug Bret, that's what I should've done in the first place (still learning the "file a bugzilla bug" first impulse). I'll file more redirect bugs using this product/component. -tantek
