 keyword=forms.ModelMultipleChoiceField(required=False, queryset=JobGenre.objects.all())

it wont show job genres , instead it shows "JobGenre.object" in all the options.what should i do in this case?

the error i got from select a jobgenre:´and i must selected at least one option, it seems like required=False doesn't work neither

Do you have a __unicode__ defined on JobGenre?

class JobGenre(models.Model):

    name = models.CharField()

    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.name
