I developed most of the site on my 15.6 inch laptop running Ubuntu. I just loved Ubuntu's Times New Roman and didn't like its Arial. On Windows it's the opposite. Arial looks much better.
Similarly, blue hyperlinks looked great on my laptop's monitor but they're so-so on other monitors.
And you just confirmed both of my thoughts! There's indeed a great contrast between blue hyperlinks and white background on most monitors. And the font is hideous on Windows too, :-(.
We're going to fix both problems soon. As well, we're analyzing job searches to improve them. There's a lot of room for improvement both on the front-end and back-end.
