[Website] JPMorgan Graduate Recruitment sites go live

I've just the spend the better part of three months system designing, template optimisation, building and bug troubleshooting of JPMorgan's Graduate recruitment websites. The main part was the complete redesign and development of the accessibility aware sites of US Investment Banking and Europe, Middle East and Africa Graduate recruitment sites.

In addtion to this, the global careers portal page and other global pages were also set to this accessibility template.

Luckily, only minor additions to the current India and Asia Pacific Graduate recruitment sites. With minor amendments to the South African site. Maybe these will move the new template next year.

I feel like I've been through the wringer with this one... ...same again next year?

Sites and Technology used:

Although WAI-AAA was not required, the basic templates and css complies with WCAG 1.0 WAI-AAA, However, the content as entered by client limits the sites to WCAG 1.0 WAI-AA.

WAI Accessibility Checker

Can your website be properly viewed by everyone?

Web Accessibility Inspector is a program that can determine whether or not your website can be easily viewed by the elderly and those with visual impairments. Web Accessibility Inspector, which is based on W3C WCAG 1.0 and Fujitsu Web Accessibility Guidelines, effectively determines whether a website is easy for anyone to view.

It can evaluate not just HTML but also CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), and it can conduct a diagnostic at a high level of precision, including character size, line spacing, and the color of characters and backgrounds. Use of this software allows for the improvement of your site's overall accessibility and can ensure its reliability.
