The Dashboard shows that I have 22 succeeded jobs but when I click on that tab it says it could not find any succeeded jobs. Any idea why this would be?

Because succeeded and deleted jobs are only kept for 24 hours (by default), and then removed to keep storage clean. Counters, on the other hand, preserve overall statistics.

As @pieceofsummer answered, it’s absolutely normal.  
You coul’d prolong that retention time, keeping all the data about the job execution for the period that you need, using an attribute (per job) or globally applying a filter.  
You can read more about it here: [How to configure the retention time of job?](http://hangfire.discourse.group/t/how-to-configure-the-retention-time-of-job/34/2)
