Redirect URL with a parameter to homepage

Recently we have released a new website for a company but some of the old links still apear on google webmaster tools.

I tried to create a redirect with some luck, however I want to fully remove the parameter and redirect all the links matching the structure to the new homepage.

So these pages

http://www.example.com/job/view.php?id=142
http://www.example.com/job/view.php?id=3453
http://www.example.com/job/view.php?id=567

will redirect to

http://www.example.com

I used this redirect

RedirectMatch 301 /job/view.php$ http://www.example.com/

which works OK with the exception that the resulting website looks like:

http://www.example.com/?id=142

You can try this way

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^job/view\.php$ http://www.example.com/? [R=301,L]
