Default Pattern Based Data Extraction

I purchased a few days ago an upgrade from Standard to Premier because I was trying to find an easier way to extract links. Apparently the pattern based data was able to do this. Unfortunately I couldn’t figure it out how to make it work for corporate employment pages that are using Taleo platform. This is very important as most important corporations are using it.
I tried for example to extract the URLs for the jobs posted on Bombardier employment page: https://bombardier.taleo.net/careers...moresearch.ftl
Unfortunately using pattern based data extraction I get an identical link for all the jobs (https://bombardier.taleo.net/careers...oresearch.ftl#). For example for the following job “Methods Agent - Configuration Control and Change Management” the correct URL is: https://bombardier.taleo.net/careers...n&job=AER09183
and not:
https://bombardier.taleo.net/careers...oresearch.ftl#
A while ago I figure out another way to extract the URLs (that’s why I’m able to show you the correct link) but the task ended up to be too complicated and hard to be cloned for other similar employment pages. That’s actually why I decided for the upgrade.
Could anyone help me on this?
Thank you,
Alex

Sorry I forgot to mention … if the URL extraction won’t work could you at list show me how to extract the Job Number (right after Job Posting: …) using the same Pattern Based Data.

Thanks again

Alex
