Hello! I’m new to this site and I was scouting out and learning how to use proz. I was checking how to filter available jobs and noticed for the most part that available jobs correspond to the number of jobs available… except for Swedish. I found this is the only one showing a discrepancy where it says 44 jobs available, but the actual jobs are far less. Is this a bug that happens from time to time or are only certain jobs being shown for basic members. Just curious and learning the site.

I've always noticed, and wondered, the same, but with a minor (not really!) change.
I think, when search criteria standardized across all interested users (basic and/or paid-membership), jobs showing are not the same per every such user!!!
