Also, you might want to edit your post. You have:
http://1milejobs:8080
rather than:
http://1milejobs.com:8080
The first thing I noticed was the use of "mile" in your domain and
company name. Using "mile" is problematic since most of the world is on
the metric system. I fired up a thesaurus to augment the tiny amount of
imagination I have for this kind of thing, but the best suggestions I
came up with that weren't already registered were:
No match for "NEIGHBORINGJOBS.COM"
No match for "CLOSEBYJOBS.COM"
Sadly, tons of domains with "jobs" in it are already taken.
Your faq says you've tested with recent browsers, but you need to put
some effort into maintaining support for older browsers (yes, I know
it's a pain, but such is web development). The following screen shot
was done on Firefox 18:

It looks a better in chromium 24:

In Chromium, when loading over a slow-ish Internet connection, there's a
flash of a set of icons with titles, but they disappear behind the
above. I don't want to poke at it, but I'd bet if I toggled visibility,
I might find something that you don't want accessible.
For your initial app display, I'd use geo-location to get the general
location of the visitor, and display a few listings from that area, even
a wider area than one mile if need be.
It's an interesting concept. Good Luck!
