Recently, Google tested a new type of sitelink for standard web search listings. This was first discovered on November 11th by Brodie Clark – SEO Consultant.
Interesting. Looks like you might not need to add jump-to links in content for the sitelink treatment anymore.
Shows for various features (featured snippets, knowledge panels etc.), now seeing scroll-to-text parameters on standard listings.

Here’s another new feature observed on the SERP where we can see the jump-to links tab combined with rich results (based on Schema). This showcases results in the form of an expandable carousel that is fetched from jump-to links present on the website.
Below is a snippet where we can see the jump-to links tab combined with an FAQ rich result.
Hey @brodieseo & @rustybrick!
Is this something new or am I just late to the party? This specific section is being picked from the Jump Links present on the page!

Adding to the above tweet, Brodie has shared a couple of more examples.
Google's tabbed jump-to links test combined with rich results (based on Schema) can take up a lot of space. Here's what this can look like when both FAQ and How-to rich results are triggered. This test is out in force today, also spotted by @AkarshK10 & @foodieby_nature pic.twitter.com/sT3CpoD9MJ

Earlier, we had seen Google saving up on the real estate on the SERPs by reducing the number of FAQ questions it showcased. However, if Google decides to roll this hybrid version out, it will take up a lot of space on the SERPs.
