The employer field truncates to 55 characters, can this please be fixed. Example:

"University of Central Florida - Office of Research & Commercialization" truncates to "University of Central Florida - Office of Research & Commerciali"

It's actually 64 characters and the setting is in the schema (you can verify this through mysql). If you want this lengthened you'll need to edit job_posting.install:

'employer' => array(
        'type' => 'varchar',
        'length' => 64,
        'not null' => TRUE,
        'default' => '',
        'description' => t('Holds the string employer name sponsoring the job 
          posting.'),
      ),

Change the length key to what you want and reinstall the module.

That's funny, MS Word says it is 55; must not include the spaces. Again, it would seem to me this is something that needs to be addressed with the module itself, not something individuals should have to hack. I went ahead and made the change to the database, but this should be addressed by the module's authors themselves. You should also address the URL limit as well.
