    And as for having a vested interest - jog on. I heard about this site about 10 days ago, haven't used it myself and simply stuck it out there.
    It's astonishing the attitude some of you carry around, really.
    Its rubbish. I applied for a role via Jobswerve to find I had to then 'register' for elevate. Only then there was no trace of the job I applied for nor could I find matching other roles.

    When i contacted them, they said I hadnt registered properly (oh really?) and suggested I registered again. I did so and again, couldnt find the job i wanted to apply for.

    Hacked off I then tried to remove my registration. Except there was no way to do so.

    Im firmly of the opinion its just a spamming vehicle to garner cv's and leads.

    My advice would be to stay well clear.
    I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

      Just going by posts 35 and 36 which resurrected this thread, so not 100% sure

        +1 All of these sites (apart from LI) seem a waste of time.

            This makes reasoned sense, so fair enough. After being dragged through this thread I wish I'd never heard of them now. Forums are supposed to be relaxing.
            I'm a smug bastard.
