It's very simple...is that what you are going for? Not very eye catching. My relay to customers that you aren't skilled enough.

It's a search engine. It's not suppose to be eye catching. Google doesn't use anything all that fancy either.

Great thanks for the feedback.

Bascially the goal is it being a simple look similar to Google so that when the user comes in it ia a no brainer to search for a job they just type in the entry and away they go

Looks fine to me. Though proper coding is always a good idea.

Yeah, I guess I never figured out that it was a search engine, the focus is TOTALLY not on that. If need be, do something like Yahoo. You can have all of the content...but FOCUS THE ATTENTION onto the search part! My eyes go to the colors, not the search bar.

Just some samples of forms that might help bring the focus to the form quicker.
