On the plus side, I saw a contract role on Jobserve last week where I now seem to get no replies to any applications. A recruiter's name was listed with a phone number so I chanced my arm and called it and got the switchboard. Thought I would get fobbed off but the recruiter spoke to me and after just 30 seconds outlining my experience he asked me to email my CV directly and he would call straight back.
I now have an interview with the client today. If I had just applied straight via Jobserve my CV might just have got lost in a pile of others.
So always try to speak to the recruiter. 90% of the time now it's impossible but you never know.
