As a user browsing the job details page I caught myself multiple times now looking for a button "back to jobs list" but could not found one and wound up changing the address directly.

There are two means at the moment:

  • the X in the upper right corner (like in Jenkin's Blue Ocean)

  • pressing the Escape key

Would a different symbol instead of the X help?

Definitely. I cannot remember recognizing it. 😕

Also, the first place I was looking for something like that was the upper left corner. The space is (like Jenkins) currently unused.

What else would make sense here? Other than an X I mean?

Here are some points that could make this better.

  1. Add a logical separation for the navigation elements.
  2. Align navigation to the left following the F-pattern for screen reading.
  3. Use a more relevant icon to describe the action of going back to the dashboard, see left arrow.
  4. Group and order navigation items per hierarchy.

The View all button could renamed per need, for example to Dashboard.
