JCJ is an iphone front end for the popular medical locums job agency jcjlocums.co.uk. One of the main requirements was that the app be fun and easy to use which allowed Chris Baxter to use his creativity and come up with a really unique design.

The animated intro was achieved using CoreAnimation to drop UIButtons from the top of the screen. The “multi value fields” used in the search screen are simply UILabels embedded in a UIScrollview using the paging feature to provide smooth scrolling between values. There are existing Calendar libraries for the iphone however I decided in the end to write a custom control which allows much tighter integration into the design.

JCJ Locums app is available free on the app store
